NTFS support is not enabled in the distro kernel. Please see this
CentOS wiki and follow the instructions there.
http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/NTFSPartitions
You would need some packages from the dag (referred to as rpmforge in
the article) repository.
That's right. Use either ntfs-3g or kernel-module-ntfs.
kernel-module-ntfs supports only read from NTFS and is 100% stable,
whereas ntfs-3g supports also write to NTFS, see http://www.ntfs-3g.org/
Get ntfs-3g from the SL contrib:
ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/51/i386/contrib/ntfs/
And kernel-module-ntfs for your kernel from:
http://www.linux-ntfs.org/doku.php?id=redhat:rhel5
