Henrik, I doubt if the reliability problem you are experiencing is intrinsically in GnuCash itself although it may be associated with the library used to connect to MMySQL. GnuCash is not designed for multiple access in particular, i.e. multiple users cannot simultaneously access the same data file without significant risk of error. The libraries and routines for SQL access currently do not have the record locking capability to support multiple simultaneous use. You will need to establish administrative protocols, if using several computers to access GNuCash, to ensure such access is not simultaneous.
I would initially trial testing on a single computer which is also running the MySQL server supplying the data, to ensure there are no server installation problems before trying to access the server remotely. Once this is functioning you can then be reasonably sure that any remote access problems are communication/permissions issues and not intrinsic issues within GnuCash.
