I've never gotten this to work reliably, but I have set up little Applescript applications to foster messing with this of you want the applications/code.
The eppc URLs must be resolved at compile time too, which makes this a royal PITA.
What I have done is wired up iChat as a message router by sending messages to me logged in on another computer ala iChat, to restart and shutdown my other Mac(s) without having to get off my shiny metal butt but oddly, the command must be issued twice before it works.
If you want this, I also have it as well.
GL. EPPC communication is a royal PITA. Make sure the OS versions are similar on all the machines you're trying this on.
