Hi there
i'm thinking of starting a database project but i want the DB to be located in a PC works as a server and distribute this DB over an internal network, so many users (clients) can access the DB from their own PC.

Any good tutorial or example?

Generally it is bad idea to access DB directly or better to expose DB to outside world. Therefore it is better that you create service that can consume request and then return data that you need. This could be a simple servlet that listens for specific http requests and then reply or web service. You should really give it more thoughts...
