Redhat and NTFS

Someone told me there was a rumour about a Plugin for redhat that allowed you to view/read and write NTFS files. Does anyone know if this is true/where i can find it? Thanks
 
There are RPM's at the site N4S linked to, but beware, write support is highly experimental, it may work, but chances are you'll screw up the filesystem you're trying to write to.
Reads are considdered safe though.
 
Like Sunner said. you can read ntfs, but don't write.
I believe write works for older verisons of NTFS, however if you have XP or 2000, I wouldn't think about writing to it.
You don't want to blow away your filesystem for a simple write.

There are tools you can use to read ext2/3 filesystems as well. So if you need to modify a NTFS file in linux, just copy the
file into ext2/3 modify the file. And when you get back to windows copy the file back from ext2/3 back to NTFS.

Its actually not really a plugin more a kernel module.
