I'd like to have an AppleScript running on one box as the server. On the client, I'd like to be able to tell the server what to do. However, I want it to be flexible - I want to be able to send the server the string "tell application "iTunes" to play", for example, and have it run that - I can't have predefined ones on the server... unless that's the only way to do it...
Thoughts? Thanks in advance.

Hey there,
There's two ways you could go about this, as far as I know..
you could try ...
tell application "itumes" of machine "eppc://username:password.10.0.0.1" to play --
The other option is embedding the script in a shell script.... which allows you to then ssh into the machine, and execute a shell script which contains the applescript code.
Which would look like this....
#!/bin/sh osascript <<END tell app "itunes" play end tell END
You then have to save it, and make it executable by using chmod 755 ~/Desktop/myscript.sh
in a Terminal window.
