Scripting from another machine?

[jit]

Do I need to do anything special to run a script on a remote machine (not on the box running QM)? Aside from, of course, using a complete URL to point to the QM server?

I have been trying to use one of the scripts posted here on the forum (qmon.php). I have a user setup ("myremote") in the class ROBOTS and I'm using the correct password, but keep getting a message that the connection was refused.

Thanks.

No - as long as you don't have firewalls and you are using the cotrrect URL and port number to access QM.

OK. Is the name of the robot user significant? Does it need to be "robot"? Do I need to do anything other than to assign them to the class "ROBOT" (and verify that the ROBOT class includes the "ROBOT" key).

Robot is a predefined user that allows remote connection (it belongs to class ROBOTS, where it holds the key ROBOT).

Make sure that it's enabled - it ships in the default config, but it has to be turned on manually.
