telling remote Finder to say "Happy Holidays!" fails

I just tried to run a script posted on macaddict.com, and it fails.

Anyone know why running this script gives the following error?

set remoteFinder to application "Finder" of machine "eppc://10.1.0.1"
tell remoteFinder
say "Happy Holidays!"
end tell

-- An error of type -916 has occurred.

Also this script refuses to even compile due to the same error:

tell application "Finder" of machine "eppc://10.1.0.1"
say "Happy Holidays!"
end tell

I have verified that Program Linking is enabled for the user I am logging
into the remote machine with. The local machine running the script is OS
9.04. The remote machine is running OS 8.6. Ideas?
