Why are you writing your own login function? What is wrong with the one in Auth (http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/09/access-control#)?
When I have used the Auth facilities, and I want to restrict access to a page, I use the decorater @auth.requires_login() before my controller function (say index()). When a user tries to visit index, they are routed to a login page, after login they are routed to index(), the controller they were trying to visit in the first place. Sorry if you already know all this which is documented in the link above.
