Mount NTFS on RHEL 6.2

Solution: yum install ntfs-3g

Issue:  I would like to access the NTFS partition on my laptop while I am running RHEL 6.2 Workstation.  I believe Fedora had this all enabled from a standard build.  RHEL did not, but it was not a big deal to work through it.  There are probably thousands of posts on this topic.  But, this one covers exactly what I need.

[jradtke@neo ~]$sudo  mkdir -p /windows/C

-- Add the following to /etc/fstab

# Windows Partition
/dev/sda2       /windows/C              ntfs    auto,rw,umask=0000,uid=2025,gid=2025,fmask=117,dmask=007,defaults 0 0

[jradtke@neo ~]$ touch /windows/C/test
[jradtke@neo ~]$ ls -l /windows/C/test 
-rw-rw----. 1 jradtke jradtke 0 Jan 11 20:34 /windows/C/test
