I know this used to work fine for me before I migrated three of my Apple machines to Mavericks as they were all on Snow Leopard and LR4.

I will retest with the setup and document if I can get time later this week.

But if the drive is a local drive that can be mapped (is shared) then it should work fine across multiple machines across the network. So the LRCat file and the images live on one drive that is attached as a shared drive to a single machine and this data can be accessed from another machine.

One thing that I havent tested but I dont think it would work is multiple users on different machines accessing the same LRCat file. Adobe dont make multi-user applications.
:devil:


JK-

The thing I don't understand about your setup is how it manages the lrcat for the laptop that is NOT on the network???

Isn't it simpler to just use some cloud storage space like dropbox and then you have the lrcat physically on each machine and it's constantly updated in the cloud for the other machines????
