For the local ntfs partition, this is a good howto.

You mention having already installed the driver rpm, but before ntfs
shows up in /proc/filesystems, you may need to load the module:

depmod -a (if you have not rebooted since installing the rpm)
modprobe ntfs

It should not, however, be necessary to manually load the module this
way.  "mount -t ntfs" should do it automatically.
