macOS 10.13 High Sierra Mostly-Automated Setup

An easy to refer to document for regularly setting up macOS 10.13 High Siera, in flavor of my previous macOS/OSX setup gists:

• macOS 10.12 Sierra - https://gist.github.com/kevinelliott/7a152c556a83b322e0a8cd2df128235c
• Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan - https://gist.github.com/kevinelliott/e12aa642a8388baf2499
• Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite - https://gist.github.com/kevinelliott/0726211d17020a6abc1f

I use this gist to keep track of the important software and steps required to have a functioning system after a semi-annual fresh install. I generally reinstall each computer from scratch every 6 months, and I do not perform upgrades between releases.

I started with this guide

This is going to be a story

First issue I ran into is that wsl hostname -I command in the sshd.bat didn't work due to -I not being an option in the default WSL2 distro (the one that WSL launches into if you don't install any other distros). I ran wsl hostname --help and learned there was a -i, so I changed it to that, since that does spit out an IP. It just turns out that's not the IP you want. This was my point of failure.

I kept running into a kex_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host error. After some hours of debugging, I realized the ip address s
