One way would be to specify it in the config/routes.rb as such:
map.connect '/admin/posts/:action', :controller => 'posts'

Another might be to create a posts method in the admin controller and 
have it redirect to the posts controller (passing all the values 
across).

def posts
  redirect_to :controller => 'posts', :action => params[:action]
end

There is probably a better way to pass *all* of the params across - 
anyone?
