How do I write access to users regarding SSH server for remote control in Linux Mint?

Question

SSH server is on computer #1. Computer #1 is running Linux Mint. Computer #2 is running OS X. I used the following command:

ssh mike_10.0.0.188

The IP address is from ifconfig from the terminal as root.

and the question is? Can you be more clear what are you trying to achieve? — Jakuje, Commented Apr 30, 2016 at 16:34
I installed a SSH server on my Linux Mint OS computer. How do I use my OS X computer to connect to my first computer? — blue-success, Commented Apr 30, 2016 at 17:01

Manual page is usually good start. man ssh is what you are looking for. There is synopsis:

ssh [...] [user@]hostname [command]

describing exactly what you need. If your Linux IP is 10.0.0.188 and your Linux user is mike, then:

ssh [email protected]

I tried that and I got "ssh: connect to host 10.0.0.188 port 22: Connection refused"

So then ssh is not running on the linux host or firewall is running on that host. Still to much possibilities.
