There are several secure ways to set up a read-only backup system, but
that loses the convenience of browsing and restoring files via the web
interface. But, users can still directly download files or tar archives,
so it is a reasonable approach, and probably the right thing to do for now.
And, if I do need to restore a system, I can temporarily change the read-only attribute in rsyncd.conf -- or do it by hand. I like that manual step of root intervention.
