New issue 378 by jm.magnu...@gmail.com: How to mount s3fs in read-only mode
http://code.google.com/p/s3fs/issues/detail?id=378

I'm interested in mounting an s3fs volume on my dev server, in read-only
mode. Is it possible to enforce read-only somehow in the fstab?

Hi,

I think you can use umask option in entry of fstab or command line.

I tried setting umask=0333 in fstab, which prevents me from writing new
files to the mounted directory, but it still allows files to be deleted
from the mounted directory... am I doing something wrong?

Hi,

At first, you should use umask as 0222 instead of umask=0333.
But umask is not protected writing by root user.

I think you can set "-r"(or -ro) option in command line or fistab, then
under the mount point is read only.

Hi,

This issue is left for a long term, and s3fs project moved on
Github(https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse).
So I closed this issue.
