Previously, I tried a small computer running Linux and Samba and hosted the database file and all the clients connected to it. That was less than successful, mainly due to user error. Now, the database file is hosted on one Windows laptop and all the clients connect via Windows File Sharing. The Linux server just handles background network stuff like dhcp and ntp. Actually, I suppose I could just use a router for dhcp, but I need GPS time as there will be no Internet access and I need all machines closely synchronized in time. I'm still fine tuning this whole package and experimenting with different configurations. Ultimately, it will all be in a GO-Box that will be pretty much just a deployable plug-and-play unit.
