Authentication failed: Handshake does not match.

Trying to use android.py to remotely control my phone, I get this:

com.googlecode.android_scripting.rpc.RpcError: Authentication failed: Handshake 
does not match.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./test_script.py", line 4, in <module>
    droid.makeToast('hello, my master')
  File "/home/coila/Desktop/NASA_Stuff/android-sdk-linux_86/tools/android.py", line 57, in rpc_call
    return self._rpc(name, *args)
  File "/home/coila/Desktop/NASA_Stuff/android-sdk-linux_86/tools/android.py", line 48, in _rpc
    result = json.loads(response)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/json/__init__.py", line 307, in loads
    return _default_decoder.decode(s)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/json/decoder.py", line 319, in decode
    obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/json/decoder.py", line 338, in raw_decode
    raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded")
ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded

This is on an ubuntu 9.04 system running python 2.6.2

Oh, and also, using sl4a_r0.apk and python just now downloaded.

The Tutorials wikipage links to this tutorial for doing remote scripts:

http://indefinitestudies.org/2009/06/20/command-your-shiny-android-in-python/

Which gives obsolete instructions for finding the AP_PORT to use.  When using 
that incorrect port, I got the above error.  You should remove the link to that 
tutorial, and make the RemoteControl tutorial easier to find.

Tutorial removed and FAQ updated to point to the correct remote control 
instructions.
