Is "logout_onlogout=" or "onlogout=", both ways have no errors and I guess 
the logout has been made correctly.

If I put again the prints:

 def logout():
    if auth.user:
        print 'check 1'
        auth.logout(logout_onlogout=lambda user: 
session.update({'auth':None}))
        print 'check 2'

check 2 doesn't appear, but I guess is because of what you said in your 
previous post, logout redirects automatically to index, so ok.

I think my logout problem is solved, thak you very much again.

If you don't mind I will write again my questions about sessions (I still 
have problems trying to understand how they work), just in case anyone has 
any clue about this:

- A session file is created associated to a user each time that user logs 
in. Is this ok?
- My users make a login through auth.login_bare(user, password), does this 
create a session file then?
- What should be the code to remove the session file of a user when he/she 
makes a logout?
- I've set my auth.settings.expiration to 999999999, does this affect to 
sessions too? As far as I know it only affects to when an inactive user is 
automatically logged out, is this correct?
- Testing this I've seen that with no logged users in my server, if I 
manually remove the sessions files, some of them are created again!! Why 
and how? As I said I have no users logged in the server.
