There's nothing magic about the table auth_user. You can look at it in the
database view (appadmin) of your application and see its fields. For
example, if you want to query for a last name, just use the same syntax
you'd use on any other table:
db(db.auth_user.last_name.like('Barn%')).select(...)
...or...
db(db.auth_user.first_name=='Joe').select(...)
...or...
db(db.auth_user.username.contains('frog').select(...)
-- Joe
