In short, the write support offered by the kernel (hence kmod-ntfs) is quite limited. Alan Bartlett pointed to this section of the kernel Kconfig file:
"The only supported operation is overwriting existing files, without changing the file length. No file or directory creation, deletion or renaming is possible. Note only non-resident files can be written to so you may find that some very small files (<500 bytes or so) cannot be written to."
Conclusion is, if you need to write to NTFS, you should use ntfs-3g.
I can write, rename, create folders and files under kernel -2.6.18-164.2.1.el5
Using the in-kernel ntfs module (kmod-ntfs) ?
