What I would do, and how I read NTFS stuff from Linux is:

- Share the root of the NTFS drive from Windows 2000, giving permission to a selected user or 'everyone'
- mount the drive from linux with the following command line (needs SAMBA)

mount -t smbfs -o username=(windows username),password=(users password) //servername/name_of_share /your_directory/mount_point

Works well for me, but as I say you need to have SAMBA install on your machine.
