running concurrent gnucashes with one database

[L. D. James]

You can place the Gnucash database anywhere and run it from the 
application not much different from the way you run Libreoffice (or 
Microsoft Word) to edit a document.  This includes having the data file 
on a drop box folder.

As far as running at the same time, that isn't possible at this time.  
One user had to use it at a time.  When the one user finishes he has to 
save his changes.  Then the next user (from anywhere) can access the file.

At present Gnucash doesn't support multiple users.
