The results are perfectly correct for the code you are running; you are finding all Trackers. Your code:
$this->set('trackers', $this->User->Tracker->find('all')); ... is saying "go to the User model, then leap out to the Tracker model and bring me back all Trackers". To filter the search, pass in a condition: $this->set( 'trackers', $this->User->Tracker->find( 'all', array( 'conditions' = array( 'Tracker.user_id' => $userId // where $userId is 'this' user ) ) ) ); Or (in my opinion the better strategy) use the containable behaviour: http://book.cakephp.org/view/1323/Containable.
