There _is_ a write-read ntfs driver available for Linux. It's called Captive. I've not tested it myself. So I can only inform. There's a few Live-Cds which does provide that driver. (it uses NT's native ntoskrnl and ntfs.sys as a wrapper) BitDefender based on Knoppix Has that, but unfortunately, I've not gotten round to testing it. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
