CakePHP by default uses users/login for loginAction, loginAction is the property where you define the controller and action where cake does the login 

public $components = array('Paginator'=>array('limit'=>2),'Auth'=>array(
            'loginAction' => array(
            'controller' => 'aucusers',
            'action' => 'login'
        ),
            'loginRedirect' => array('controller' => 'aucusers','action' => 'index'),
            'logoutRedirect' => array('controller' => 'aucusers','action' => 'index'),
            'authError'=>'You can not access this page!!',
));

loginRedirect - It represents where user should redirect to after login logoutRedirect - It represents where user should redirect to after logout

I believe that if you want to change the default controller you have to set the UserModel option. I set it at beforeFilter method. So in your case it will be.

/**
 * beforeFilter method
 * 
 * @return void
 */
public function beforeFilter() {
    $this->Auth->authenticate = array(
        'Form' => array(
            'userModel' => 'AucUser',
        )
    );

    return parent::beforeFilter();      
}

I haven't seen in the docs to have any controller option.
