Conceptual question about several users using the same "local repository"

Hello All,

In my company we have a discussion about the usaga of Subversion.

After I set the sever (Linux + Apache + auth_ldap(active directory).

The developers started using it...

After some time I checked and the developers was using it in some weird
way for me.

The developers make a checkout in a windows network drive.

And the others developers use this networkdrive and in the end
"somebody" (or maybe the last one in the day) do a commit.

It strike me, maybe I am wrong but I don't feel like this is the best
way.

Today this is working but I have the feeling that we are missing
something or in the future something bad will happen.

By my understanding the developers must do a checkout in a each local
drives, work on it and after make the commit.

Who is right? What are the problems of this "network" several users
approach?

Thanks

Carlos Henrique da Costa Cano
