A Ucam-Webauth authentication plugin for Catalyst has been written by Michael Gray from Engineering. It's available at
Note that it requires the Ucam-WebAuth-AA Perl module which, to avoid a bug leading to warning messages when using the plugin, should be at least version 1.02.
Jon Warbrick has discovered that by default Catalyst's session cookies do not expire at the end of the session, but instead have a two hour lifetime. This can be confusing for users.

cookie_expires: 0
