Embedded Firebird Server support

Q: Does it support replication of Firebird Server on corporate machine and Embedded Firebird Server on a laptop ?
Because I want to do a replication between my laptop Embedded Server and my company's Firebird Server database.
A: I did not study Embedded Firebird Server thoroughly. I think that EFS is one user server provided linked to application as DLL. Database is still separate classic GDB/FDB file. EFS does not support multiple users, i.e. when you will have 2 EFS applications on desktop then only one can open database. If this true or false ?
If true then I think that logical solution is linking IBRepl server (SDK) using EFS to your application (not supported now) or run IBReplServer when EFS application do not use database.
