I posted some code for this a few weeks ago. Search for my name in one
of the archives and one of my latest posts should contain the answer.

After authentication expires after $lifetime you could just ask the user
for his/her password since you still have the username in
$auth->auth["uname"]. Then you could have a sign out completely link
which would point to a script that deletes the session and
authentication subsequently and gets rid of $auth->auth["uid"] and
$auth->auth["uname"]. Check out $sess->delete() and $auth->logout(). I
think those should do the trick, but there may be some other functions
that you'll need to use also. I can't remember the details right now.
