read-only mounts


Hello,

I've searched the mailing list archives, but haven't found anything
recent/relevant.

Is there any way to create a mount point that is read-only by everyone?

The reason I want to do this is because I want users logging in anonymously
to my inetd ftpd to be able to access directories not under the ftp user's
home directory.  The reason why I want to set read-only access at the mount
table level (instead of the file level) is because I can't guarantee that
various windows operations won't mess up the access bits.

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rob.
