I have been using Mocha VNC iPhone app to control my G5 while I'm not at my desk. To do this I need to set Remote management options in OSX sharing preferences to 'allow all users' as the iPhone app doesnt support single user option for some reason.

Anyhoo... I didnt realise (or think for that matter) that setting this option over rides the screen sharing preferences to which I had set to off. Because the VNC app is all about sharing and it doesnt support single user setting. How can I stop other macs on my network from sharing my screen?

Basically I want to be able to control the G5 via my iphone but stop my macbook from being able to observe the screen.
