[QUOTE="MacsWork, post: 493752, member: 11094"] Be aware of what the shell script is. If your friend writes shell scripts, I'd think they know how to setup ssh and firewall port forwarding. SSH runs on port 22. You'd need to forward that port through your router to your iMac. Unless of course they're be using one of the existing PC's on your network. They'll need your username and password to login, or a username and password of an account on your iMac with admin rights. IMO that's just not smart. [/QUOTE]
