gnuserv/gnuclient is a bit more sophisticated.  The main difference is
that it allows you to execute any editor command remotely, not just
opening a file.

More information, please?  Do you (gnuserv-start) in your .emacs?

With emacsclient, AFAIK there's no way but of course you can make your
server buffer read-only after it is opened just like any other buffer,
with C-x C-q.  With gnuclient (actually gnudoit),

gnudoit '(find-file-read-only "foo.txt")'
