my $0.02:

this is called the captive-ntfs project, it's homepage is
www.jan-kratochvil.net and it works like a charm :-)

tested it at home, and it is great. it even has a cool gui utility that
searches a windows installation or a mounted win NT/2k/XP cd for the
windows original ntfs (and other) drivers. 

It then builds a modules called "lufs" (something like "linux user space
file system") and when you load the module, it allows you to 
# mount -t captive-ntfs 
an ntfs partitin for full write support.

THe only caveat is that the write speed is about 500KB/s or less.
