To start using Auth, you need at least this code in a model file,
which is also provided with the web2py "welcome" application and
assumes a db connection object:

from gluon.tools import Auth
auth = Auth(globals(), db)
auth.define_tables(username=False)

Set username=True if you want auth to user username for login instead
of email.
