You should only allow hosts access to your GlusterFS servers that you
trust. Firewall off the rest, and use auth.allow and auth.reject for
the others.

This is needed because GlusterFS doesn't have built in authentication.
So the answer is that you must mount the volume readonly with standard
mount 'ro' vs. 'rw' options.

If there is a better solution than this, I don't know it, and maybe
someone will let me know.

Cheers,
James
