 To connect to a worker machine through SSH, run:
 ```
-vagrant ssh <worker-name>
+vagrant workers ssh <worker-name>
 ```
 
 If you want to test the connection between the primary VM and a worker, you can first `vagrant ssh` into the primary machine and then run this command to SSH into the worker from there:
 ```
-su submitty_daemon -c ssh submitty@<ip-address>
+su submitty_daemon -c ssh <worker-name>

-The IP address of the worker machine will be indicated in the `.vagrant/workers.json` file.

+The list of worker names can be displayed with `vagrant workers status`.
 
 __NOTE__: Depending on the performance of your computer and the size of the autograding queue passed to the worker, the SSH command may hang for some time.
