DX4WIN is not designed to share its log file. It keeps QSOs in memory
and writes them to disk periodically, What this means is that if you
log a QSO on one machine it won't be seen on the others. That means
that QSOs will get lost (you log 3 QSOs on computer 'A', then go to
computer 'B'. It doesn't see those QSOs, so when you write the log on
computer 'B' they're lost).

Trying to do what you propose will quickly corrupt your log.
