Should I be able to simply create a
file (ie touch foo) on an NTFS volume 
that's mounted rw?

I'm following -CURRENT... did I miss 
something from the man page?  
I thought that at least minimal 
write support was available?

The mkdir foo returning that . doesn't exist seems unusual.

# su -
# mkdir -p /mnt/w2k_d
# chown root:wheel /mnt/w2k_d
# chmod 777 /mnt/w2k_d
# mount -t ntfs -o rw /dev/ad0s5 /mnt/w2k_d
# cd /mnt/w2k_d
# mount | grep w2k


/dev/ad0s5 on /mnt/w2k_d (ntfs, local)

# df -k w2k_d

Filesystem 1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad0s5  69754198 47186058 22568140    68%    /mnt/w2k_d

# touch foo              (a file which doesn't exist)

touch: foo: No such file or directory

# touch ra             (a file which does exist)

touch: ra: Operation not supported 

# mkdir foo

mkdir: .: No such file or directory

Any ideas or suggestions on how to proceed?
