Multi-user gnucash

  Two of us access gnucash from different workstations. The data are in a
directory for which we both have read/write permissions. The software is
installed on host 'A' and can be accessed from host 'B' via telnet. (We have
a secure enough work environment that we can comfortably telnet internally.)

  The problem I'd like to solve is preventing the LCK and LNK files in the
data directory when gnucash is accessed from host 'B' (the "remote" one). We
don't get these files when using gnucash from the machine on which it is
installed (host 'A').

  It's easy enough to remove these spurious files when it's time to fire up
a new gnucash session, but I'd sure like to just eliminate the problem
completely. Can someone suggest what we need to do?

Thanks,

Rich
