Hi all,

To increase the security level of my OpenBSD system I have defined at
/etc/fstab that the root partition should be read only. /etc/fstab
follows:


/dev/wd0a / ffs ro,softdep 1 1
/dev/wd0g /home ffs rw,softdep,nodev,nosuid,noexec 1 2
/dev/wd0f /tmp ffs rw,softdep,nodev,nosuid,noexec 1 2
/dev/wd0d /usr ffs rw,softdep,nodev 1 2
/dev/wd0e /var ffs rw,softdep,nodev,nosuid,noexec 1 2

After rebooting my system I tested to check whether these settins were
applied correctly:

# cd /
# touch test

 When I ran ls the 'test' file was there. I mean, the ro flag that I
had added to my root partition had no effect. Has anyone ever faced
this?

Thanks.
