I'm afraid you need to provide more information.

"Unix 5.5" does not sound meaningful. Do you have more information about which vendor or what hardware you are using?

Your mounting question sounds like you are probably using Linux or some BSD variant. The "mount" command is able to mount NTFS disks read-only or read-write on many modern consumer Linux/*BSD systems, but we really need to know a bit more about which one of those you are on.

It's not at all clear what you mean by "the stop". If you mean how to shut down the system, this depends again on what system you are using. On Gnome and KDE, the login screen has an option to shut down the system.
