Thanks for the welcome, and thank you for your reply.
However, importing the files onto each computer is not a solution!
Firstly, it would mean that all the effort I put into creating the
database has to be replicated on each computer I use.
Secondly, it does not offer the protection which my file server provides.
Thirdly, it fills the user area on each computer with all the thumbnails
and database.
I fear that, until Shotwell can hold its data on a remote device, I
shall have to seek an alternative solution.
