Default RE: Mount NTFS on Linux??

when you do the rpm command are you in the folder where you downloaded the rpm file or are you typing the full path in the correct format with caps and lower case? check your file and folder locations and syntax. navigate to the correct folder where your files are at and type:

rpm -ivh ntfs-3g-1.910.RC-1.EL4.i686.rpm
press enter, then
[/align] rpm -ivh ntfs-3g-1.910.RC-1.src.rpm <enter>
[/align]rpm -ivh ntfs-3g-devel-1.910.RC-1.EL4.i686.rpm <enter>

@nasty: ive tried FreeBSD a couple of times, not a huge fan. Not user-friendly enough. I like stuff thats easy to work when you want it to, but if you want to do more advanced things its all for it. If I was interested in running a full-time websever I would use BSD, but I use my computer for normal computing as well as a server, so a more user friendly OS with a highly-configurable framework is where its at.
Admitidly FreeBSD is a bit less forgiving but it rocked when I had it setup for a mail server.... I had a 600mhz machine running smtp and pop3 and it was amazing. I think I was running the Gnome/KYB?? interface.... I'm a HUGE DOS fan so I love command prompt stuff...

Same thing when I'm sitting in that directory.
error: Failed dependencies:
fuse >= 2.6.3 is needed by ntfs-3g-....etc.
libfuse.so.2 is needed...

The other 2 command lines simply said No such file or directory.

if you are logged in as root try logging in as your normal user and run the rpm command

Also, I can't recall the command right now but there should be a way to verify that fuse is in fact installed. If it's not you could install the latest release

type "yum list *fuse*"

look in there for the library you need.

if its already installed try entering the command "export PATH=$PATH:/sbin:/usr/sbin" after you become root. sometimes bash likes to not include the sbin paths in its ... well... path....
Although If fuse is just a library and not an executable thats run in sbin, this wont help.
sometimes installers complain about not being able to find modprobe, and thats the reason.

I got that fuse downloadthe other day& it couldn't find a suitable compiler.
So I got GCC because that's the first one it looked for. I just have to install it (& discover the next error sequence). Inbetween my normal work...

How can I find a FUSE package(?) that's not source code?
Is that a possibility? An rpm file that can be installed directly? Where would I look to find such a thing?
