The beforeSave function defined in both tutorials are same. In the ACL tutorial, since the model name is User, so they have used data['User']['password']. However, in the auth tutorial, they have used in as a generalised function, " $this->alias " it will work with any model name.
About session_destroy, I am not sure. I never had to use this thing. And you should trying logging via different browser. I hope its not destroying other user's session. It might just be a browser issue. Did you trying clearing sessions and cookies of your browser before using $this->Session->destroy() ?
