Keeping the data files on shared network storage ("Windows network
share", Samba, NFS, sshfs, etc) and accessing them directly has the
advantage of real-time file locking: If a running instance of Gnucash
has the data file open, then when you try to open it from another
Gnucash instance on another
If you were dealing with a machine that's left running all the time,
the obvious move would be to adjust the cron job so it runs in the wee
hours of the morning and has lots of time to finish before anyone logs
in, but it sounds like that's not the case here.

Hi all,
For reasons that are complicated but not especially interesting, I
would like to run Gnucash on one machine, with the data file located on
a remote machine — with the added challenge that the network access
available to the Gnucash "client" machine is a terrible cellular data
