Sending events to remote Mac.

I would like to duplicate an Applescript I used to control iTunes from a
remote machine. Has anyone figured out how to target applications on a
remote machine? I have tried the following and it isn9t working. Am I
missing something? Here is what I have tried:

Using terms from application "Finder.app"
tell application "Finder.app" of machine "eppc://192.168.1.5/"
display dialog "it worked"
end tell
end using terms from

I get an error message that highlights the last quote in the machine address
saying that Applescript cannot find the application9s event dictionary. This
is the only part of OS X that is making my life miserable, well, less
perfect than it could be. I did check the list and from the description that
I read described the script above. I have enabled remote Apple Events but
have not enabled remote login. Any help will be appreciated.
