I'm currently using ntfsprogs for managing my NTFS partitions, it
works very well and I can create any file I want....the only problem I
experienced was while moving a lots of big files (>200MB) in the same
dir.
I just compiled the FUSE module...installed ntfsprogs (the latest
version)...umounted the ntfs partition (that was mounted with the
kernel's ntfs module ) and remounted it with ntfsprogs (modprobe fuse
&& ntfsmount /dev/hda5 /mnt/winc -o umask=0000).

Hope this helps.
