Exactly where is auth being defined -- is it in /app/models/db.py, or is it
in a subfolder of /app/models?
Note, if you're using the current version of web2py, you no longer need to
pass globals() to auth, so just do auth=Auth(db).
Also, for API details, see http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/04#API and
http://www.web2py.com/examples/static/epydoc/index.html.
