What I would do is just create one table in your database called Users,
and have one of the fields in the Users table be something like
“user_status”. Then you could set the user status for each user to
either regular or admin. After you create the table in your database
you can create a class for it by running the following command in the
command line:

script/generate model Users

Adam, I would recommend you install the Engines plugin, and then install
and configure the LoginEngine engine to your application and review the
code contained therein. It might actually be just what you need (and
then some), but if not it will at least give you great insight. I
learned a ton by just reading the LoginEngine code and following what it
was doing.
