</div>

In the portal’s admin-section i use ajaxscaffold to manipulate the User  
list. When create a user and try to login with the same credentials to  
the portal, the login is not successful. When i tried to find out the  
reason, it seems the salt & salted\_password fields in the ‘user’ table  
is not getting updated. I dont know what breaks in Login Engine for this  
strange behavior…!!  
Kindly help me to overcome this issue…

cch:

Ajax Scaffold is already deprecated in favour of ActiveScaffold

cch: I think you should look at acts\_as\_authenticated for a possible  
solution
