Your password has expired, the session cannot proceed. Connection to ras2.somwhere.co.uk closed. Any idea how do I allows users with expired passwords change their passwords via SSH?

Upgrade your OpenSSH server; this is know BUG. If you don’t want to upgrade disable UsePrivilegeSeparation option in /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and reload sshd server.
I recommend upgrading as old version has some serious security bugs.
