I'm new to the list and apologize if this is a rehash. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This happens with autofs or using mount directly. However I mount the disk the first time, the same characteristics are passed to future mounts. ## This is a read only mount point and you can see the options in the /proc/mounts file at the bottom

cd /nfs/ro3/fs14/a/rla/

df -k . Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on fs14:/a/rla 657148928 545010048 112138880 83% /nfs/ro3/fs14/a/rla

## Then when I go to a mount point that shouldn't be read only, it take the options from the previous mount.

cd /fs14a/rla/

df -k . Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on fs14:/a/rla 657148928 545010048 112138880 83% /fs14a/rla
