	Most anything "can operate" on a network drive... But should it?

	The main thing the documentation is explaining is that one
application accessing the database FILE does NOT LOCK OTHERS from
accessing the file. Nothing about how the file is accessed. A
low-activity web service would allow lots of people to concurrently
access it -- but the processes that are doing said access are all local
to the database file.

	Technically, M$ Access/JET (which is also file server database) also
permits multiple clients -- but the locking becomes a pain.
