Ok, so I'm dual booting Win2K Server, and Redhat 7.0.

My question is this:
Will Linux be able to read/write from an NTFS partition, without using Samba? Say using 'mount'.

I've done a little bit of research and I've gotten all kinds of answers. So far, I've been told you can:
- Read but not write.
- Use some funky switch on the mount command to gain that ability.
- Not do it at all.

So, this is now my last place to ask. Please excuse the lack of Perl related material in this post. Also, if anyone knows of good online resources for this type of question, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.
