Trigger a remote script at certain time intervals

Hi,

Is there a way to trigger a remote script at certain time intervals (say every 10 minutes) without setting up a Threshold?

Thanks!

If you can have the script act like a 'dummy' Custom Sensor, that for instance always returns "0:OK", you can install a Remote Probe on the target machine and have the dummy sensor run at that probe every 10 minutes.
