Some things to check:

Is there any encryption on the NTFS? If so, forget it.

What are the permission settings on the ntfs? Can Linux even read/modify
them?

The tools say the fs is mounted rw, but may in fact be mounted ro for
some reason, eg the fs driver detected a problem and enforced ro to
prevent data loss?

Start creating a file at the top level, then work down one level at a
time, to pinpoint the problem location.

Bug in ntfs-3g?
