After doing some thinking and research here, what about using chattr to set the
i attribute?
man chattr tells me:
QUOTE
A file with the ‘i’ attribute cannot be modified: it cannot be deleted
or renamed, no link can be created to this file and no data can be
written to the file. Only the superuser or a process possessing the
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE capability can set or clear this attribute.
