</div>I think that you have misunderstood my question. I know how to do it<br>
with the packages from RPMforge ( which is where I get fuse-ntfs-3g )<br>
but I'm trying to evaluate the kmod-ntfs package from ELrepo.org. There<br>
seems to be something I'm not understanding about this approach, or I'm<br>
not finding the correct documentation for it.<br>

As of CentOS 5.4 (kernel 2.6.18-164 or newer), the fuse kernel module
is included in the kernel itself. Therefore, dkms and dkms-fuse are no
longer required. If you have previously installed dkms-fuse, please <strong>uninstall</strong> it by a <strong>yum remove dkms-fuse</strong> command. </blockquote>
