Yes, use a database that's network capable like mysql or postgres.

Trying to use DBD::Proxy for this is a -heinous- hack and almost certainly
not going to work (::Proxy is kinda limited, it doesn't supply half the DBI
API ... really, don't try this. I've just about made it work, once, but it
was far far FAR too painful for words)

Thank you, now I know I needn't to try further.

This was only an attempt to contact my production sqlite from a
development box. I disliked to copy the db from one box to another when
wanted to retrieve actual data.

Use a read-only NFS mount or something then.

... dear god, I just recommended NFS as a less hacky solution to something.
Kill me now.
