How do I share one Outlook data file between two networked PCs?

Maid Marian

I recently put a second computer in my house and am in the process of setting up a network. I've got the computers sharing an ISP connection (using a Linksys 54g wireless router) and am able to share basic Word files but I've run into trouble with Outlook and would appreciate any help anyone out there can give. What I'd like to do is be able to run Outlook on either PC using a single data file on one of the PCs (the .pst file, I believe) so that changes made on the Calendar on one PC, for example, will show up the next time I open up Outlook on the other PC. I'm assuming I can only have Outlook open on one PC at a time. Both PCs are running Windows XP and Office XP. I also have a Palm that I'd like to synch to the same data file - I had been doing this before I got the second computer using PocketMirror with no problems.

Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks.
