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. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
