CentOS - Dec 2008 - mount as ro for users, rw for root?

Under CentOS 5.2, is it possible to mount an iscsi filesystem/partition as 
rw for root, but ro for users?

If so, what would be the proper syntax?

Thanks.

I think it will have to be group/user permissions just like a normal
SCSI drive

Possibly, but iSCSI is not a file sharing protocol. You can only mount cluster
FS's with multiple ini's or when root changes the FS while another
client has
it mounted funny stuff happens such as ro clients not seeing changes etc.

iSCSI is not designed to be used in this fashion.
