How to send Apple Events to a remote account without a password?

Hi,

I'm trying to send an Apple Event to a remote user account without a password, but can't figure out how to do that.

Sending the event to a password protected user account works fine:

tell application "Finder" of machine "eppc://<user>:<password>@<computer>.local" to sleep

However, I can't figure out how to modify that code to connect to an account without password. I've tried

tell application "Finder" of machine "eppc://<user>@<computer>.local" to sleep

and

tell application "Finder" of machine "eppc://<user>:@<computer>.local" to sleep

without success. Each version brings up a login panel, and when I leave the password field empty, it quits with

syntax error: User canceled. (-128)

Has anyone an idea what to do in this case?

Thanks a lot in advance for any insight!

Bye
Uli
