Rem, You cannot write to NTFS using the stock driver.
Please use Google to search / do research on the drivers out there; writing to NTFS is a VERY dangerous thing. Your best bet is to just do your work over the network instead of directly over USB from a Windows-based node. Also, read the man file for mount_ntfs, it will explain more. -- Ryan On Aug 21, 2010, at 11:31 AM, Rem P Roberti wrote: > I have a 500GB USB HD which I am able mount thus: > > mount_ntfs /dev/da2s1 /mnt > > Having done so I can copy from the external drive, but not write to it. > What is necessary to implement in order to be able to write to an external > hard drive? > > Rem > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
