Hi,

Is it possible to call an osax remotely?

tell machine "eppc://some.valid.address"
path to system folder
end tell

The above gives me an error at runtime saying the machine "doesn't understand
the path to message".

I think you need to target an application. If I run this, it seems to work but the alias is invalid.

using terms from application "Finder"
tell application "Finder" of machine "eppc://user:email@hidden"
path to system folder
end tell
end using terms from

--> alias "Mac HDSystemFolder"

The info is correct but note the lack of colons in the path. The script was run on a OS X 10.2.8 machine and it was sent to a machine running OS 9.1.
