RE: NTFS filesystems

Have a look at:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-ntfs/
or
http://www.ntfs-3g.org/

The first one works very well for me, but just using RHEL5 with an
external USB drive. And it's still read-only access...

I didn't have much luck with ntfs-3g, but that was some months ago. I
think that was supposed to allow write access too.

Greetings:

Does anyone know the status of things regarding mounting NTFS
filesystems? My RHEL4 installation squawks at this as an unsupported FS
(plugging in an external USB drive). I have been able to whack the
factory partition and create a new ext3 filesystem on it, but I was
hoping for interoperability, so I could recover files from a Windows PC
if necessary.

My drive is a 750 GB model, and my kernel is 2.6.9. I thought
NTFS had been supported for some time. Am I mistaken? If I am missing
some other pieces for the kernel, how do I get them?
