I'm new to Calibre as of about 1 hr ago so bear with me .....

I have setup the calibre-server on a Linux box and have it running os a daemon
I have the GUI running on a mac pointing to the linux library with an afp share.

It all works fine connection wise and I can add books and meta no problem.

My question is, will this work or have I missed something. I worried about things like DB locks and indexes.

I do not want to run X on the linux box all the time and also found the linux GUI was not as good at collecting metadata as the Mac version (did not try to tweak it at all, so that is probably just me :-).
