How to set up screen sharing and remote access to a Mac?
Answer
Remote access to the macOS operating system may be needed for server administration or working from your main computer while on the go. The built-in screen sharing feature allows you to manage your desktop without installing third-party software.
For connection, the standard VNC protocol or the native Screen Sharing app built into the Apple ecosystem is used. You can configure the access level for specific users or allow connection only to a specific address.
In the security settings, you can also allow remote command-line management via the SSH protocol. This is indispensable for developers who need to quickly run a script on a remote machine.
•Open System Settings and go to the General section.
•Select Sharing and turn on Screen Sharing.
•Specify access rights for network users.
•Connect from another device using the Mac's network address.
