There is no admin area in Drupal, and everyone uses the same login form. Whether they see the admin menu options or not depends on the permissions you have given them.

- In /admin/user/roles you can set up user roles such as "editor", "forum moderator", call them whatever you want.
- In /admin/user/access you can set up what each role can do.
- In /admin/user/user you can assign roles to users, so that they can do what you want.

But you can't set up real forum moderators with only core Drupal. You also need to install and enable the Forum Access module (http://drupal.org/project/forum_access) and the ACL module (http://drupal.org/project/acl).
