The lifetime of the AFS tokens is equivalent to the lifetime of the
Kerberos 5 TGT that you obtain from the KDC.   If you use Leash to
obtain your Kerberos 5 TGT, then you can specify the lifetime you
want for that TGT and all service tickets obtained with it.

The OpenAFS System Tray Tool (afscreds.exe) does not have any user
interface for specifying the lifetime of tickets or tokens.  The
lifetime used for Kerberos 5 TGTs and service tickets are those set by
Leash in the registry.   See the KFW Release Notes for details.
