Hello, I'm thinking about using SQLite on a windows file share having multiple 
clients reading and writing to the database. I think I understand the gist of 
how this works via some really good docs on the SQLite site but from what I can 
tell, it sounds like this isn't a canonical scenario for SQLite (which is fine, 
I just am hoping to get some perspective). The FAQ mentions that file locking 
of network files is very buggy and not dependable (in particular on Windows 
file shares). Additionally I read the document on locking and concurrency (v3) 
that in effect states the best defense is not use SQLite for files on a network 
file system. I believe we will have moderate multi-client traffic and I was 
hoping to gain some additional perspective from folks who have far more 
experience using SQLite in this config. My impression is that its not really a 
canonical scenario and I'm trying to get a handle on what I should expect or 
even if I'm looking at the right database technology (assuming I am going to 
have moderate concurrency to deal with). Many thanks in advance for your 
thouhgts. Thanks,
Shawn
