 I have mounted a ntfs(WinXP) partition on my freebsd box, but i am unable

 Any ideas?

Check the WRITING section of man mount_ntfs.  There are limits on
writing to NTFS.

 
 
 Thanks

My understanding is that is the current state of ntfs support.
You can read from, but not write to ntfs slices.  I don't know
if writing ability is being worked on.

You can write to... smbfs allows full rw capability.  I run a backup job
on my linux/freebsd servers every night and back the resultant tars up on
my windows xp box via smbfs mount.  Works like a charm.
