Hi,
I recently had similar issues launching
a script on a remote machine. Run script cannot be used. I ended up using
the osascript command. I had a script on the remote machine called
'Beep.scpt' and you could pass a parameter telling it how many times. I
used this line on the calling machine to run the script on the remote machine:
do shell script "osascript /Beep.scpt
5"
The script on the remote machine was
this:
on run(x)
beep
x
end run
You can pass a literal this way but
not a variable. The only way I could figure out to pass variables was to
write my parameters to a file on a server accessed by both machines. I
then opened the file on the remote to read the parameters in and used this
to launch the script:
do shell script "osascript /Users/Shared/bin/AdobeAutomate/ProcessFiles.scpt"
Which is nothing more than the location
of the script on the remote machine. It worked.
