In the new administration module (in CVS) we use the menu.module
capabilities to reparent menu items. This module essentially
creates a new admin path (called sadmin) and reparents admin to be a
child of sadmin. Currently this is a 4.7 only module but the
concepts should work for 4.6 as well.<br>

http://drupal.org/node/2476#comment-30525</a><br><br>It recommends using the path module; an elegant and proper solution. As<br>long as your ISP host doesn't route *all* /admin/ paths to their control<br>panel, it'll set up as described. Otherwise, you'll have to set up the
<br>path module while your Drupal is still in the subdirectory, and then move<br>it up to the main directory.<br><br>Cheers,<br>--Katin<br><br><br>--<br>[ Drupal support list | <a href="http://lists.drupal.org/">http://lists.drupal.org/
