Trying to steer this back on a Perl track:

You might want to look into VMWare, which allows you to run NT under Linux. I do this to test cross-platform compatibility of my Perl modules.

Anyhow, some excerpts from the Linux 2.4.4 Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt:

To mount an NTFS volume, use the filesystem type 'ntfs'. The driver currently works only in read-only mode, with no fault-tolerance supported.

If you enable the dangerous(!) write support, make sure you can recover from a complete loss of data.

Please note that the experimental write support is limited to Windows NT4 and earlier versions at the moment.

This would imply for me that you're not going to be too successful.
