There's really no such thing as a non-expiring ticket. You always need
to re-authenticate periodically to get a new ticket. Many deployments
allow tickets to be "renewable", however. This means you can use your
existing TGT to authenticate to get the new ticket (during the renewal
period).

If you are using SSSD 1.5 or later to authenticate users through
Kerberos, there is a built-in functionality to enable auto-renewal of
kerberos tickets.

See the options krb5_renewable_lifetime and krb5_renew_interval in
sssd-krb5(5) (man sssd-krb5)
