Best method we like to use to remotely monitor CCTV cameras especially for small business applications is using VNC. This actually gives added benefits since the owner is able to monitor systems located on the local machine e.g POS system and help debug issues with the computer etc

Our VNC software of choice is realvnc (more info at www.realvnc.com). The enterprise version is just about $50 for the server per machine (usually these small business just need one server). There's actually a free server but it lacks in security.

Check out the realvnc site for more information on configuration and if you run into issues especially as related to configuring cctv cameras for remote monitoring (Q-See cameras especially) drop a post and we'll try and help you out.
