Here's how the script reads now...

set thisMachine to "eppc://MyName:[log in to unmask]"

tell application "Make DMGs" of machine thisMachine to open file  
"Make DMGs" of folder "Applications" of startup disk


And that's where the problem lies at the moment.

I suspect that it has something to do with the fact that Make DMGs is  
not a 'file'. It's an application, an AppleScripting application.

The question remains, what is the syntax of calling upon an  
application on a remote machine to run on that remote machine, via an  
applescript on an separate machine.

Regards.
