Supersite, CNAMEs and A Records

Hello everyone,
I'm setting up my domains supersite (http://domains.oandohosting.co.uk) and it seems to work in terms of CNAME and what not, however the problem is the client control panel. I want to have a URL domains.oandohosting.co.uk/logins or something along those lines basically a folder setup so my clients can log in. Doing so requires settings up an A record which is fine however I heard you can't do what I want with a folder setup. Any ideas?

You can't have both a CNAME and an A record of the same name in a zone, if that's what you mean, no.
But the subfolder has nothing to do with that, as long as the name resolves, if I get your whole meaning.

the best way is to set your control panel to something like
controlpanel.oandohosting.co.uk
Cause you cant have CNAME for both the supersite and the control panel.

Any other ideas? Might just settle for the controlpanel idea.
