How to use Mac encrypted screen sharing from iOS

Hello,
I have a Mac Mini running Yosemite Server that I can access from a remote Mac, using Screen Sharing app. I have selected "Encrypt all network data" and this works very well.
Now I'd like to do the same thing from my iPhone or iPad (both are running iOS 8): access my Mini in the same way I already do from the remote Mac. But I want my connection to be as secure. All data must be encrypted between the Mini and my iOS device.
What is the best way to achieve that? What are the best iOS apps? I've tried some VNC apps but they don't seem to manage encrypted sessions. Did I miss a subtle setting, either on my Mini or on the iOS apps?
Any help is truly appreciated.

Enable Screen Sharing from command line

I inadvertently removed screen sharing from my mac mini server firewall but I can still ssh into it. How can I enable either screen sharing or remote management via ARD?
Thanks so much,
J.

Sorry for the imperfect instructions, I was doing it from memory.
First, set up secure ssh credentials by doing the public/private RSA key exchange.
Based on someone else's suggestion I found on the web, I created an "alias" command in my .tcshrc file. I just launch a terminal session and use my alias I've created, followed by my ssh credentials on the remote machine, and the alias/script does the rest.
Begin fragmment from my .tcshrc....
echo " myvnc ACCOUNTNAME = connect to ACCOUNTNAME via VNC"
alias myvnc 'ssh -f -L 1202:localhost:5900 \!:1 sleep 10 ; open vnc://localhost:1202'
... End fragment.
So when I want to vnc I just type
$ myvnc [email protected]
In fact, after a while, I got tired of reading all the server logs of people trying to hack my server over port 22 (ssh standard port). Once you have the alias command above working for you, you can pick a different port on your server's firewall, and forward it to port 22 inside the firewall. That way, hackers that scan your port 22 won't get any response.
Once you do this, you can revise the alias in your .tcshrc to also include the "-p" ssh argument, so hep save you the trouble of remembering the ssh port you have moved your server conversation to. For example, it you decided to close port 22 at the firewall, and forward port 2222 (just an arbitrary number I picked) to your server's port 22 inside the fire wall, your alias line would look like this...
alias myvnc 'ssh -p 2222 -f -L 1202:localhost:5900 \!:1 sleep 10 ; open vnc://localhost:1202'

Screen sharing from Tiger

Is it possible connect to another mac and gain access to its screen from a mac running tiger? I am trying to connect to my mac laptop that is running Leopard. I can get my laptop to screen share with this tiger computer, but not the other way. any suggestions?

Actually, you don't even need that vine server on your Leopard machine, or on your Tiger machine (I'm a little unclear who is who on your working configuration and who is who on your not-working configuration).
If you want to use your Tiger machine (VNC client) to access the Leopard machine (VNC server), then on the Leopard machine, go to Sys Prefs > Sharing, check the Screen Sharing checkbox, and click on the "Computer settings..." button. In the resulting popup, check the "VNC viewers may control screen with password" checkbox and enter the password that you will require the Tiger client to use to connect with their VNC client program. I assume you are using CotVNC or JollysFastVNC as the VNC client program on your Tiger machine?
Now, if I got the direction backwards, here is what you would do to use your Leopard machine (VNC client) to access the Tiger machine (VNC server): On the Tiger machine, go to Sys Prefs > Sharing and check the Apple Remote Desktop checkbox on the Services panel. I think that would do it.
Now, I, personally, further configure my Tiger machine to allow VNC from other Tigers as well as from Leopard's Screen Sharing program in Leopard, so while I don't think you would have to do the following for Leopard-only clients, if the above isn't working, then try these additional steps:
First, click on the Tiger (VNC server) Firewall tab in Sys Prefs Sharing. Click "New." There is a pulldown menu in the resulting popup where you can choose "VNC." Choose it. It will "quickfill" the port entry information for you. Save those changes and exit.
If that still doesn't do it, then return to Sys Prefs > Sharing > Services panel. With the Apple Remote Desktop service checkboxed and highlighted/selected, click on the "Access Privileges" In the top part of the resulting popup, you can grant access privileges by user; fill out as desired. In the bottom part, check the "VNC viewers may control screen with password" checkbox. IF you were allowing VNC access from other Tigers, use the password that you would want VNC clients to use. I think you probably need something in there if you have to do this last step.
By the way, you know that, in Leopard, you can launch Screen sharing from Finder by doing a ⌘k and typing in "vnc://{name of remote computer goes here}", right? Also, if you haven't already done so, you may find it convenient to drag /System/Library/CoreServices/Screen Sharing.app onto your dock and/or make an alias of it in your Applications folder.

How can I remotely enable Screen Sharing remotely on 10.8?

Is there a way to remotely enable Screen Sharing from another mac? I'm using 10.8.

I assume you mean by remote login.
To enable via SSH to an admin account:
sudo launchctl load -F /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.screensharing.plist
To disable:
sudo launchctl remove com.apple.screensharing

How to use conditional success Screen in SMP2.3 HWC?

Hi All,
Do anybody have reference for conditional success screen,
I gone through this link SUP 2.2 Conditional Navigation Issue
but i didnt able to do how to use conditional success Screen.
If anybody have reference please provide me.
Regards,
Sravanya

That works. Follow the below steps.
1. Create a key on the selection screen: click on the selection screen>properties>keys>Add a key,ex. "value".
2. MenuItem>In the properties of menu item>Parameter mappings>map the key with the key created in last step.ie. "value" instead of the key of the choice box.
3. Get the value selected from choicebox:
function customValidateScreen(screenKey, values) {
if(screenKey === "Selection")
var form = document.forms[screenKey + "Form"];
if(form){
SelectionValue = form.ChoiceboxKey.value;
//ChoiceboxKey is the key of choicebox.
//Declare a global value "SelectionValue "
3. Map PK from program:
customBeforeSubmit = function(screenKey, actionName, dataMessageToSend) {
if(screenKey =="Selection" && actionName=="GoToChart" ){
var myNewValue2 = new MessageValue();
myNewValue2.setKey("Value");// Key created in the screen "Selection"
myNewValue2.setValue(""+SelectionValue );
myNewValue2.setType("TEXT");
var mvc = dataMessageToSend.getValues();
if( mvc ) {
mvc.add( myNewValue1.getKey(), myNewValue1 );
// So in the above way the data from choice box is send to online request.
To do the conditional navigation you have to use the global value created,ex.
hwc.customConditionalNavigation = function(currentScreenKey, actionKeyName, defaultNextScreen, conditionName, incomingDataMessage) {
if( conditionName === 'Data'&& SelectionValue == "PieChart") {
         return false;
     }else{
    return true;
Hope you understand how I did this.

Screen Sharing from 10.6 client to 10.5 server looks cruddy

Any idea why Screen Sharing from my 10.5.8 OS X Server (XServe G5) to my 10.6.5 MacBook Air would look like crap (pixellated)?
Here's what it looks like. It also looks like this from my Mac Pro (10.6.5 also).
http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5162/52804708313d6e6373cco.png
It also looks like this in ARD "Observe" or "Control" mode.

Fixed it. Turns out it was the video card (more likely the video card driver). I swapped a new vidcard in there and it's good to go.
This was a cluster node, so it didn't have a stock video card.

Huh?
Are you asking how to do JNI - you should read the tutorial.
Are you asking how to load it - then use System.loadLibrary()
Are you asking what to do with the output from javah - put it in a C file and write some code, compile it into a dll.
