[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Hoopla SSH SIP setup

[Josh Stompro]

Hello, I just wanted to report back that we did get SIP2 tunneled over SSH
setup with Hoopla.  The only roadblock was that they don't support key auth
for SSH.  Once we allowed password ssh auth things fell into place.  They
do support the standard SSH forwarding.

I used this article as a guide on setting up a forwarding only ssh user,
and that worked fine for the setup on our end.
