I asked similar question a while back and no answers. There is an $this->Auth->ajaxLogin = '/elements/users/expired_login'; option you can add in app_controller
My problem is a lot of my ajax calls are waiting for a JSON response.status true or false then do something based on that so nothing happens for me with $this->Auth->ajaxLogin = '/elements/users/expired_login'; since that just pumps out plain html, not JSON which is what I need. If I get around to figuring it out I will post it here.

In my case, I don't want to display a complete page in my AJAX dialog but only a message alerting the user that he can't access to the page. Any idea to manage that or if a solution already exists?
