Here's my situation. I'm planning on developing an application using the embedded library so my client doesn't have to worry about managing the database server. The problem is that it's a multiple user, multiple machine application. So they all need to access the same data.

If it's multiple machine, you can't use the embedded server. It doesn't support outside connections.

My question is: Can I reliably run multiple embeded servers on the same data (stored on a network share) by enabling external locking? Or, is there a better way to accomplish the same thing?

I don't ususally develop Window's Apps, so any help is appreciated.
