One word, captive. Captive FS reads and writed native NTFS under linux.
I have successfully used it to mount NTFS partitions.

I have a iomega ultamax 1 Tbyte usb drive and have HFS+ format on it (MAC os
10) and linux mounts it just fine. I have window xp boxes networked with
samba to access this drive. I tried NTFS could only mount read only and
only with 3rd party software and FAT32 works but it has limitations such as
permissions can be set for only one user.

In linux.redhat Scott and Sue Wyckoff wrote:

The OPs error messages appear to be hardware messages.
Attempting to mount NTFS won't show up until you try to mount the volume,
and those don't look familiar to me.
I have a dual-boot laptop with WinXP install on NTFS so that I can mount it
from Linux. I also have a dual boot that has an NTFS volume, and it sits
there quietly, no error messages unless I try to mount it.
