Why is it unsafe to write in NTSF from linux?.
The thing is that even putting rw in the command line of mount, I cannot write in the disk. How would be the line with the "user" statement.

there seems to be some confusion around writing to NTFS, but here is the
situation as I understand it:
1. RW access to NTFS is considered unsafe and experimental
2. By default the system will only allow root rw access
3. Lots of people seem to use rw anyway :-)
I have preferred to take the safe approach, by sharing data bn linux and
M$ via a FAT32 partition.
All that said, have you tried including "user" in your mount statement?

possible...Can anyone help me here, please.
