Sending a command from OS9 to OSX


  • Subject: Sending a command from OS9 to OSX
  • From: Toshi Nagata <email@hidden>

I am trying to send a command from a script application running on OS 9/X
to a remote script application running on OS X, but has not been successful
on OS 9 (it works on X). Here's what I am doing; any advice will be appreciated.

The remote script looks like this:

-- Remote SA
on test()
tell application "Finder"
beep
end tell
end test

and it is saved as a "Stay Open" application and launched. The local
script looks like this:

-- Local SA
tell application "Remote SA" of machine "eppc://(IP address)"
test()
end tell

When I run "Local SA" on OS X, it asks the user name and password,
and accepts my input and works as expected. However, when I run it on
OS 9, it similarly asks the user name and password but rejects my
input with a message like "That user name is not correct. Try again."
What am I doing wrong?

OS 10.2.6, AppleScript 1.9 (Remote and Local)
OS 9.2.2, AppleScript 1.8.3 (Local)
