You're welcome :)

readonly mount is supported by general mount(8). From the man page of mfsmount:

       General mount options (see mount(8) manual):
       -o rw|-o ro
              Mount file-system in read-write (default) or read-only
              mode respectivel

Here's an example from my /etc/fstab:

       mfsmount /home/share/ fuse \
            ro,mfsmaster=mfsmaster,_netdev,nosuid,nodev,mfssubfolder=/share 0 0

Hope this helps,

Regards,
