Re: Authorization missing autoMagic?

Thanks for the input... It seems the form helper create parameter is
more directed to the controller for which to use the 'login' method.
Because authentication methods would be the only methods I'd use in a
users controller, I was trying to include this in my section
controller (panels). But , being that it was something different in
my implementation than all other examples, I created a users
controller with a login view which now matches the standard call to
'Users'

echo $this->Form->create('User');

I still get the same results. The behavior I experience does not
generate any errors. Following is a list of events in the behavior.

1) my url gets redirected to user/login
2) my form gets submitted, the component calls custom crypt algorithm
'hashPasswords()' in the model to crypt the passord entry. Debugging
at this point verifies the correct hash for current user. Function
hashPasswords() returns $data with updated value for $data['User']
['password']

3) Instead of redirecting back to original url with current user
authenticated, the user is redirected BACK to authentication with
HASHED value in the password input. Attempts to add component
authorization in component init ('authorize' => 'controller', ) and
isAuthorized() to manually force/verify authentication yields false
for $this->Auth->login($user)...

Is there anything else I could possible be overlooking? Anyone?
Thanks so much for any suggestions.

Adrian
