Folder actions and remote apps

Hi,

I have a folder action script as follows:

on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
display dialog ("Started Script.")
tell application "Finder" of machine "fmp.webserver.com.au"
activate
try
beep
on error
end try
end tell
display dialog ("Just about to end Script.")
end adding folder items to

The tell block works OK if I take it out of the FAS but appears to be
ignored within it. I can't find any documentation explaining this
behaviour. Has anyone got a work around.

OS 8.6, Performa 5400, AS 1.3.7.

TIA

Peter
