I've used rsync to backup lots of data from a web server at an ISP. I want to
make it available read-only to certain staff via SMB, but ran into posix
permissions problems. Is there a way to simultaneously mount a partition
without ownership properties, EG: as if it were a FAT partition?
Also, if you mount the same filesystem twice, is there any problem with that?
