.htaccess Set Default Page for each Sub-Directory

.htaccess, apache, mod-rewrite, regex

Solution

Place this rule in `/admin/.htaccess`:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /admin/

RewriteRule ^$ login [L]

Problem

quick question: Using tutorials I have been able to redirect my domain name to point to a different page other than the index.php However I cannot find any tutorials or reference material to help me in changing the default page for a particular sub-directory. For example, I want www.url.com/admin to redirect to www.url.com/adming/login whilst still showing www.url.com/admin in the address bar. I'm sure this must be fairly simple but I can't quite get my head around in. Many thanks in advance.
