You can't put a sqlite database on an nfs partition, it won't work.  You are 
better off using mysql as the database, and then having only one computer 
(yours) update the collection.

Because the sql server should be accessible by anyone on the lan, you will all 
share statstics and stuff.

The other oprion if you don't want to do that, is export the nfs share and 
just let each local computer create it's own local database.
