[MacPerl] How? AppleEvents to remote app?

[lrtitze@inforamp.net (Les R. Titze)]

Hes anyone sent AppleEvents to target applications running on remote
computers without user interaction?

What I want to do is to tell the application "FileMaker Pro" on machine
"Database G3" in zone "Development" to doscript "Import_Records" (the user
name and password to gain shared access are known beforehand).

Because this is to be part of an automated process I'm writing in MacPerl,
I can't have any user interaction with the PPC browser for selection of the
remote FileMaker app.

I've been looking everywhere for info on using "typeSessionID" instead of
"typeApplSignature" or "typeTargetID" when using AEBuildAppleEvent in the
following form:

my $evt = AEBuildAppleEvent('aevt', 'dosc', typeSessionID(), ?????

I'm not even certain how to create a hard-coded PPC session ID which could
be used as the parameter here.

Any thoughts would be appreciated as I've been unable to find a way to do this.
