As others have said, it'll be slow. But it should work; more likely to work than NFS, anyway. Just don't turn off sqlite's fsync()ing behavior (don't change the 'PRAGMA synchronous' setting from the default FULL). In particular with the slowness, if one of those clients goes down that was accessing the database, the next write could take many many seconds to complete. > arbitrate writes to maintain data integrity.

It's not impossible for AFS to do better. -- Andrew Deason [email protected] _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
