There are two sites to look at:

The Linux-NTFS Project (http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/) and

Captive (http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/)

The latter claims to be "The first free NTFS read/write filesystem for 
GNU/Linux", since in the former the write support is still highly 
experimental (ie, will probably corrupt your data if used).

I can't provide much more info, since I've never actually played with 
either.

Cheers,

Rasjid.
