What happens after you run it
1
The script installs ZeroTier if needed and joins Howard's network.
Homebrew or official .pkg on Mac, official installer on Linux, MSI on Windows.
2
It enables Remote Login (SSH server) on your machine.
So Howard can connect once you are authorized. On Windows, OpenSSH Server is installed and started.
3
It adds Howard's public SSH key to your authorized_keys.
Only Howard's specific key. No password is set or shared. You can remove it any time by deleting that line.
4
It prints your ZeroTier node ID.
10-character string like
066c3202a2. Send it to Howard.
5
Howard authorizes you. The script keeps waiting and prints your assigned IP.
Up to five minutes. After that, Howard can SSH to you over ZeroTier and help with whatever you needed.
