NTFS-3G 1.2216 (Default branch)
NTFS-3G is a read/write NTFS driver. NTFS-3G isavailable for over 60 Linux distributions,including most major ones. Moreover, it has beenported to other operating systems like FreeBSD,BeOS, Haiku, and Mac OS X, to big-endian and64-bit computer architectures, and to CPUs likeAMD64, ARM, and MIPS.License: GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:
This release fixes file and directory removal; rename and move may have been denied with an "Operation not supported" error message. setuid-root ntfs-3g had a local root exploit and other security problems. From now on, unprivileged mounts of block devices are possible only by using the integrated FUSE library (default), which has no known security problem. Unprivileged unmount didn't always work. This release always creates the mount.ntfs-3g symlink in /sbin where mount(8) needs it.Image

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

NAME

     ntfs.util -- NTFS file system utility

     ntfs.util -k device

     ntfs.util -m device mountpoint mountflag1 mountflag2 mountflag3 mountflag4

     ntfs.util -p device mountflag1 mountflag2

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
