Comment (by Centinel):

 Per my conversation with zooey earlier today, it is my suggestion that we
 keep Baron and the VMs on OpenSUSE 13.1 since it's an "Evergreen" long-
 term support release that will receive updates for an extended period of
 time - 3 years, I think.

 Older software is often more reliable since it has had time for the bugs
 to be worked out. If we keep everything on OpenSUSE 13.1 and upgrade
 individual packages as needed, we can introduce new software on a stable
 base.

 For instance, we upgraded OpenSSH on VMWeb earlier today. That may fix the
 SSH/PAM problem.
