Read Only File System

You can do this by creating a sepreate partition or drive to mount for
that fs. When you add the entry to /etc/fstab you can place "ro" in the
options column. For Example:

LABEL=/home     /home      ext3     ro    1 1

The preceding line will mount the home directory as read only. You will
of course have to remeber to label the partition as /home. You will also
probably want to add more options then just read only. This is just an
example.

I am working a creating a remote log server using RedHat Advanced
Server 3.
I would like to be able to make an entire file system read only where
root
can't even change the contents.  Does anybody know of a way to do
this?
