    I know from RTFM that FreeBSD can mount and read NTFS filesystems.

Windows 2000 introduced the NTFS5 file system, which provides support
for encryption (if I understand correctly, similar to PGPdisk), and
possibly some other bells and whistles.

    Can FreeBSD 3.x mount, read, and write NTFS5 file systems?  For
now, I have my Windows 2000 partition set up as FAT32, and I can
mount that just fine.  I'd like to convert to NTFS5 as soon as all of
my devices are supported (which should be next month) and I get rid
of my Windows 98 partition, but if I can't get at those files from
FreeBSD, then I'll leave it as FAT32.
