<para>Execute the operation remotely. Specify a hostname, or a
username and hostname separated by <literal>@</literal>, to
connect to. The hostname may optionally be suffixed by a
port ssh is listening on, separated by <literal>:</literal>, and then a
container name, separated by <literal>/</literal>, which
connects directly to a specific container on the specified
host. This will use SSH to talk to the remote machine manager
instance. Container names may be enumerated with
<command>machinectl -H

<para>Execute operation on a local container. Specify a container name to connect to, optionally
prefixed by a user name to connect as and a separating <literal>@</literal> character. If the special
string <literal>.host</literal> is used in place of the container name, a connection to the local
system is made (which is useful to connect to a specific user's user bus: <literal>--user
--machine=lennart@.host</literal>). If the <literal>@</literal> syntax is not used, the connection is
made as root user. If the <literal>@</literal> syntax is used either the left hand side or the right hand
side may be omitted (but not both) in which case the local user name and <literal>.host</literal> are
implied.</para>
