This list has had discussion on that topic before. In short, we used to 
have a systemd service to execute aklog in the systemd user session 
(after locating the correct Kerberos ticket cache), but we have given up 
on that approach and simply use the option nopag for pam_afs_session (in 
common-auth, common-session, and common-session-noninteractive). We have 
not had any trouble because of this (no token has vanished because one 
of multiple parallel SSH sessions has logged out or something like that).

Best,
Jan Henrik
