I have a situation where I need to be able to operate a windows based DVR
but I use a MAC laptop. I understand that MAC do not support the Activex
control capability needed so I was hoping to be able to use VNC to remotely
operate the DVR and view the cameras via a remote session. Is this
the DVR manufacturers (who will probably just shrug).

presuming you can load VNC on the DVR then yes, BUT probably won't
give you the results that you want (because it's a screen redraw the
playback quality will be poor).
depending on the Windows version running, RDP would be a better option
- but unclear if that would work.
can you provide a link
I see no reason why not as long as everything you want to do and see
is available via the keyboard, mouse and the montior.
Expect some lag time in the displays. Do not expect live update to be
live.
If you have an intel Mac with Leopard (10.5) - install Windozz XP and
use bootcamp to boot
the DVR box, OS, DVR
software, your access priveleges.
