More info please. In this scenario, the local database engine is running
independent of the client using it ? (2 applications ?) Not a problem if
that is the case; in fact it could be a big plus because you could limit the
work to the two clients and a single (server) database. Licensing would then
control whether the server was for 1 person or more. Scalability would be
easy and the customers (yours and ours) would be happy to know things
continue to behave as they always did, except for more people.

Am I close ?
