Great idea. But I can't seem to mount my local volume, located at

Hrm. I can't access an AFP mount locally either. You should file a report with bugreport.apple.com


Unfortunately, there's no way around the restriction that all multi-process access to an SQLite database must go through the same file system. You can learn more about SQLite's locking at http://www.sqlite.org

At the moment, I suspect your two best options are:
(1) Find some old hardware, or buy a low end Mac Mini, have both machines connect to the server over AFP


(2) Write a simple back end daemon process. Have all connections go through it, and have the daemon be the only process interacting directly with the database. Depending on how well factored your use of Core Data is, that will either be easy or infeasible (i.e. #1 would be much cheaper). You could file a feature request with bugreport.apple.com about that too.
