CakePHP site, all pages locked out to non-admins

Hey all,

I'm pretty new to CakePHP, but a long time PHP coder, and am doing
some maintenance work on an existing Cake site. Right now, any attempt
to access a page results in a message displayed that says "You are not
authorized to access that location.".

I've been searching docs, the web, etc, and believe perhaps the
original programmer, who of course is MIA, implemented something with
"function afterFilter()" or some other mechanisms that locks all the
pages out.

This was originally done to protect sections during development, but
the site is now ready for some live testing operations like PayPal e-
commerce stuff I've built in and I need to release the site from this
protections.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it turns out we need to contract a Cake expert for a few hours I
think the client will go for that.
