I'm having a few problems with mounting and then reading a w2k ntfs partition. Basically, everything works well when I go to mount, no errors. I can navigate the tree, and copy files off onto the usr partition. Problem occurs if I try to use an application ( Kmplayer, mplayer, konquerer, samba, pretty much anything that just opens the file ) to read the file. I *CAN* get things to work right if I either copy the file to the /usr partition, and open it from there, or after copying, open the file from the ntfs partition and things work fine. The other problem that keeps occuring is that samba ( navigated off a winXP computer ) will only see the directory tree if I open a shell, ls -r the mount point, and then back to browser an look. I still cannot copy a file off the ntfs partition through samba, only from the home share. I know this almost sounds like a samba problem, but the variety of programs that are giving me problems ( even on the local machine ) leads me to believe something else is going wrong. Any ideas ?
