problems with remote execution on 10.1

Do remote events work under 10.1.? Obviously they do for some people but
I've seen posts with the same issues I'm having. Here are my results
using the simple script:

set remote_Finder to application "Finder" of machine "eppc://10.0.1.53"
using terms from application "Finder"
tell remote_Finder
beep
end tell
end using terms from

I have three machines and tested three conditions on each.
1) Is the event accepted on the loopback
2) Is the event accepted on the bound address
3) Is the event accepted on any of the other machines

Machines consist of a PowerBook G4, PowerMac 450MP, and a iMac DV+. All
machines have airport connectivity, Allow Remote Events enabled and are
running 10.1 5L14

PowerBook G4
loopback: works
local address: no, error -916
PowerMac: no, error -916
iMac: no, error -916

PowerMac
loopback: yes
local address: yes
PowerBook: yes
iMac: yes

iMac:
loopback: yes
local address: no
PowerMac: no, error -916
PowerBook: no, error -916

I can't find any difference between the configuration of the PowerMac
and the other machines. My only thought is an upgrade vs. a clean
install of 10. As one last test I updated the PowerBook to 10.1.1 5M26.
Same results.

Can some tell me what the problem is and why the one machine works but
the others do not?
