Inside /admin/.htaccess you can have this line:

DirectoryIndex login.php

This will load login.php if /admin/ is requested.

OK, this is even simpler and can be done like this:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/admin$
RewriteRule .* http://yourhostname.tld/admin/login.php [L]

Just adjust the domain name to your needs.

RewriteRule .* /admin/login.php [L]

Try this:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule .* login.php [L]

This will redirect all request to login.php if 1) requested resource is not an existing file 2) requested resource is not an existing directory 3) requested resource is not an existing link 4) This will be the last redirect rule used

I am afraid this is not what I asked for ! I want to specifically let the user when he launches website.com/admin to be directly directed to website.com/admin/login.php nothing more

You can use only one RewriteRule with:

RewriteRule ^admin/?$ admin/login.php [NC,L]

Works with admin or admin/ or AdMin...
