How to access a NTFS partition on hard drive through Terminal in OSX ?

Hi ,

I have a Mac OS X Lion mac book pro. I have a hard drive which I have partitioned in two

(a) OSX Partition - Mac OS Extended Journaled format. Mount point: /
(b) Data Partition - Windows NT Filesystem format. Mount point: /Volumes/Data

I need to access the NTFS partition (I have a lot of music files, with names like 01.No_One_Like_You.mp3 I need to access through terminal to be able to batch convert the names of these files. )


Oh, I do have NTFS-Paragon installed for NTFS read/write.

Any help/pointers shall be appreciated.

Thanks All!
