This is not a general feature of web2py, so must have been custom coded by the app developer, in which case, we'll need to see some relevant code to help. It might be a good idea to look over the access control documentation: http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/09/access-control. Note, you can always go into appadmin and simply assign the user in question the appropriate role (by adding a record to the auth_membership table). This is probably better than having some automated check that runs on every new registration, given that it will only be needed on the very first registration.
