I must be misunderstanding something, because that is what I thought I just 
showed.

hashed_password 
= 
str(CRYPT(key="pbkdf2(1000,20,sha512):whatever-your-hash-string-is")(plain_text_password)[0])

"whatever-your-hash-string-is needs" to be the same as what you're 
assigning to auth.settings.hmac_key in db.py

hashed_password should then match what is in auth_user.password
