What do I need to do to use an Access XP file with multiple users?

I would like to design a database with about 200 employees in one table and
about 50 classes in another table. A third table would allow employees to
enroll in the classes. What are the limitations for sharing this file on a
shared drive on a network? In other words, will it work fine if several
(maybe 6) people access the database at the same time to register someone for
a class? Do I need special software on a server in order for this to work
with multiple users?
Thank you.

With up to 10 concurrent users you should not have any significant problems.
You don't need any special software (except Access of course).
You will need to split your database into back-end where all your tables
are, but no user interface, and front-end with user interface and linked
tables.
