No. Or at least writing support is very experimental and might break your NTFS partition. However there is ntfs-3g in the ports (sysutils/fusefs-ntfs). This driver has read/write support. I've never used it so I can't tell you more. More info: http://www.ntfs-3g.org/ Regards, Jona -- Hi, I'm a .signature virus! Copy me to your .signature file and help me propagate, thanks!
