It's remote Apple Events (previously known as "Program Sharing").  You
can turn it on in Sharing System Preferences.

Unfortunately in OS X, remote Apple Events are very flaky.  I'd
suggest the original questioner just use SSH, either with the built-in
OpenSSH through subprocess or with paramiko
(http://www.lag.net/paramiko/).  I've replaced all my use of remote
Apple Events with it.
