Comments
To set up remote access from a Mac, go into System Preferences > Sharing and allow Remote Login or Remote Management.
From there, you will see “To log in to this compute remotely, type “ssh [computername]@10.0.0.[334]” where the number string after the @ is your “host”.
Port is also likely 22, and use your own User name and Password.
To be safe, create a second shortcut called “Computer password” and save the password there, then use Run Shortcut to grab that data and fill out your password – that way you can never accidentally share or reveal your computer password from a shortcut with this action.
