min-encryption and max-encryption are server-side settings, and the
issue is more probably in the client.

Yes, I tried specifying min-encryption = 0; max-encryption = 56 on the
server side (in conf/svnserve.conf) but it makes no difference. It's
the client that does not even try to contact the KDC for a service
ticket.
