Using Auth WIth Another Table instead of Users

I am not using the User table for authentication instead I am using an
artiste table but the problem is that I havent been able to lgoin
using the username and password I registered with. I have already
hashed the password using Security::hash($this->data['Artiste']
['password'], null, true). Would like to know how to hash the password
a user is using to login before checking if his details is right.

Would also like ot know how to use auth with another table.
I have already added this to the beforeFilter but I still cant login,

$this->Auth->authorize = 'controller';
$this->Auth->userModel = 'Artiste';
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'email','password'
=> 'password');
$this->Auth->loginAction = array('admin' => false,
'controller' => 'artistes', 'action' => 'login');
$this->Auth->allow('login','add','view');
$this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller' => 'artistes',
'action' => 'home');
