Because it is likely that most of the readers of this newsgroup / list
primarily speak English, you may get more useful responses if you
could quote the names of the settings that you mention above from an
English localization rather than from the French localization.

I am not familiar with how AD configures its ticket lifetimes, but if
it is similar to how MIT krb5 determines ticket lifetime, it probably
uses the smallest lifetime value out the set containing the client
principal ticket lifetime, the service principal ticket lifetime and
the requested lifetime.

Again, I am not very familiar with AD administration, but there may be
individual lifetime restrictions one each client principal, or more
global settings, that could affect ticket lifetime in the way you
wish.
