CentOS 5.5 is installed in the system. I installed the package kmod-ntfs-2.1.27-3.el5.elrepo.x86_64.rpm I mounted Seagate external hard disk. I am able to copy contents from the hard disk to the system but not from the system to the hard disk.
I've been following this thread, and I'm wondering: why bother with NTFS in the first place? If you have a mixed environment where you need Windows to access your external hard disk, you might as well format it with a FAT filesystem. Linux supports FAT natively, without making you jump through burning loops.
External USB drives, USB sticks, and iSCSI devices. USB sticks, in particular, are often pre-formatted with NTFS.
