The application gnucash supports multiple sequential access. If the 
directory containing the file that is the books is on this server, the 
"lock file" method of preventing multiple simultaneous access should 
still work. Do not override that! (the way you can if you are the only 
possible user)

The application gnucash does NOT support multiple simultaneous access. 
That would require a DBM (database manager)
