But it would still be better than giving the same users access in FAT32
which is anyway less secure.


Captive uses the native drivers. U still need a licenced copy of windows. But it does work.

I use a licensed XP Pro in my system. Anyway, the files can be copied
directly from the sub folders in the existing windows directory of the
Windows partition.


I want to add another experience on this. If I copy a file from linux to
a mounted captive-ntfs partition folder, I can see the file while I am
still in linux. Once I reboot into XP, I cannot see that file. Next time I tried it again but
unmounted the partition manually before shutdown of linux and now the
file is visible in XP too.

So when using Captive, the ntfs partition should be manually mounted and
unmounted in linux.

Rony.
