NTFS.UTIL(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 					      NTFS.UTIL(8)

NAME

     ntfs.util -- NTFS file system utility

SYNOPSIS

     ntfs.util -k device

     ntfs.util -m device mountpoint mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4

     ntfs.util -p device mountflag1 mountflag2

     ntfs.util -u device mountpoint

DESCRIPTION

     The ntfs.util command supports the mounting, probing, and unmounting of NTFS file systems.

     Options:

	   -p	       Probe the device for an NTFS file system using the flags mountflag1 mountflag2.	If the probe is successful, i.e. the
		       device contains a valid NTFS file system, its label is printed to the standard output stream.
	   -u	       Unmount the NTFS file system located at device and mounted on mountpoint.

     The mountflags referenced above are:
	   o   mountflag1: removable or fixed
