You can use update as originally suggested, if you have username/password
for each user, e.g.:
tell app "Finder" of machine "eppc://SomeUser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
update folder "Machintosh HD:Users:SomeUser:folder:"
end tell
etc.
Or, in Perl:
use Mac::Glue;
my $finder = new Mac::Glue 'Finder', eppc => Finder => 'host.local',
0, 0, "SomeUser", "pass";
$finder->obj(folder => 'Machintosh HD:Users:SomeUser:folder:')->update;
Note: this syntax will change slightly for Mac OS X. I have code to
automatically change file paths from Unix to Mac OS and back, but I
neglected to apply it to folders too! Next version of Mac::Glue will allow:
$finder->obj(folder => '/Users/SomeUser/folder')->update;
