Opening an applet on a remote mac

  • Thread-topic: Opening an applet on a remote mac

I’ve been trying to send apple events over IP. There’s an applescript applet on the desktop of the remote mac, and I want to activate it.

The problem is that this line: 	"set remoteHomeFolder to home as alias” returns the path to the local home folder (I can’t directly get the desktop folder either).

I know that this script is connecting to the remote system because finder activates and beeps twice.

I can’t get it to display a dialog either.

Any suggestions?


set remoteMachineAddress to "eppc://" & remoteUsername & ":" & remotePassword & "@" & remoteSubnetAddress
using terms from application "Finder"
	tell application "Finder" of machine remoteMachineAddress
		activate
		beep 2

		set remoteHomeFolder to home as alias
		set remoteApp to item ":Desktop:RemoteText" of remoteHomeFolder
		open remoteApp
	end tell
end using terms from
