I followed the Simple ACL Tutorial but have a database of plain md5
passwords.

This line is storing an object of type of AppModel instead of Users.
$this->Auth->authenticate = ClassRegistry::init('Users');

The problem is when auth.php calls this (hashPasswords function):
method_exists($this->authenticate, 'hashPasswords')

It returns false.

How can I get Auth to see my custom hashPasswords function?

Here is my Users model:
lass UsersModel extends AppModel
{
    var $actsAs = array('Acl' => array('type' => 'requester'));

    function parentNode( ) {

        if (!$this->id) {
            return null;
        }

        $data = $this->read();

        if (!$data['Users']['group_id']){
            return null;
        } else {
            return array('model' => 'Groups', 'foreign_key' =>
$data['Users']['group_id']);
        }
    }

    function hashPasswords($data) {
        if (isset($data['Users']['password'])) {
            $data['Users']['password'] = md5($data['Users']
['password']);
            return $data;
        }
        return $data;
    }
}

And here is my AppController controller:
class AppController extends Controller {

    var $components = array('Acl','Auth','Session');
    var $helpers = array('Session', 'Form');

    var $allowed = array ('pages' => '*');

    function beforeFilter(){

        $this->Auth->authenticate = ClassRegistry::init('Users');
        debug($this->Auth->authenticate);

        //Security::setHash('md5'); //Passwords are stored as md5

        $this->Auth->userModel = 'Users'; // User model is called
"Users"

        $this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'email', 'password'
=> 'password'); //Field is called email instead of username in db

        //$this->Auth->autoRedirect = false;

        $this->Auth->actionPath = "controllers/";

        $this->Auth->authorize = 'actions';
        //$this->Auth->authorize = 'controller';

        $this->Auth->loginAction = array('controller' => 'users',
'action' => 'login');
        $this->Auth->logoutRedirect = array('controller' => 'users',
'action' => 'login');
        $this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller' => 'news',
'action' => 'index');
        //$this->Auth->allow('display');

    }

    //function isAuthorized() {
    //  return true;
    //}

}
