reading ntfs with redhat 9.0

[Wagner, Steven G]

*easy fix*

You can use a knoppix disc. I've always been able to read NTFS files under
Knoppix, and since 3.4 I believe the "capture NTFS" utility is available.
This uses reverse engineered winbloze .dlls to handle writing to NTFS.

In your case I think RH disabled NTFS support by default for legal reasons.
If you really want to get NTFS support working on your system and not have
to boot into Knoppix to view your pics here's a link that should help:

The instructions are pretty straight-forward, so I don't think you'll have
any trouble following them.

Subject: reading ntfs with redhat 9.0


i backed up all my files to an ext hdd last month. the ntfs files from
the  m$ computer are just my photos. i was hoping to 'read' them with my
redhat 9 computer in the mountains over this summer, BUT apparently i
need to get a tar.gz file or something for RH to read ntfs. :(
is there an easier way to do the same thing? like maybe i should re-save
them as fat files or something?
thanks
