I am using EMacs 21.4 on Linux.

Consider upgrading: 21.4 was released on Feb. 6 2005.  23.4 is the latest
stable release, from Jan. 29 2012.

I would like to tweak my emacs configuration so that if I open a read-only file,
the default face background of that session will change.

Is it possible ?

(add-hook 'find-file-hooks
          (lambda ()
            (when buffer-read-only
              (set-background-color "yellow"))))
