I found the problem.

$auth_no_authentication = 1;

This needs to be set to 0. It seems kind of backwards, I know, but in order to have the login page come up, you need to have

$auth_no_authentication = 0;

I also see two problems in your .cfg file that are unrelated to the current issue:

@auth_default_permissions = (1,0,0,0,1);

Are you sure you want a default user to have admin permissions?

$auth_user_field = 9;

Your field #9 is City. The only field that looked like it might be a field for the userid is "Nick." If that's what you intend, you need to set $auth_user_field to 2. If not, either you need to create a field for the userid, or set $auth_modify_own to 0. (Without a userid field, having $auth_modify_own = 1 doesn't work.)
