I would like to create a group in Mandrake Linux that allows the user only to "read" files. I dont want them to have the amility to change ANY settings. Anyone know how this can be done?

create a group by typing the following
groupadd <group-name>
substituting <group-name> with the group name you want
then to allow only read access for a file for that group you would type the
two following lines
chgrp <group-name> <file-name>
then
chmod g-w+r-x <file-name>
