Your current code is correct. The tutorial is following the older
Pylons 0.9.5 convention, and should be updated. However, either way
will work.
By the way, the easiest way to do this is to call "abort(401)". This
raises an HTTPNotAuthorized exception and modifies the response for
you. I haven't looked at AuthKit closely enough to be 100% sure it's
compatible with what they're doing, but it's emerging as the
"standard" way to signal HTTP errors. You can include a custom
message as the second argument if you wish.
