For the variable to be accessed on the destination server, you must explicitly
set the IAXVAR variable on the source server.  This method does not merely
access arbitrary variables on the source server but only variables which have
been sent through this mechanism.

Just as a version note, you need to be running 1.6.0 or higher to get the
IAXVAR mechanism.
