Patch wrangler_ in dCloud

SSH into the wrangler_ server

A) via the guac ssh

B) via workstation 1 sshing to the host ma

When you ssh into yarnman, you may need to change the password if it has expired, this will be forced. This does impact the web-based ssh after the password has been changed, as it will try login with the old password again.

Workaround is to ssh with the new password from the workstation 1 rdp session with putty, then change the password back.

You may need to download a newer version of putty, depending on the version installed on dcloud, if you have cipher errors. NOTE: the putty version on the dCloud desktop is different to the one pinned on the task bar

pending update to password expire policy for yarnman user on the ssh vm in dcloud. Remove this note when done.

eg chage -I -1 -m 0 -M 9999 -E -1 yarnman
