FWIW I wrote a test program that wrote to a database file on a network
drive concurrently from several PCs. All PCs ran Win98. I tested with the
network drive being a Win98 share and Samba on FreeBSD (it was a
dual-boot). It worked _for_me_. YMMV.

I've also seen Google search results where "optimistic" or "opportunistic"
caching on Windows clients may cause data corruption, in the context of
other file-based database libraries.

Cheers.
