I had NTFS volume mount point in my fstab and its working perfectly now. I am bit confused here.
You have to use rpm -q with the package name, not the RPM file name (note the .rpm on the end of your command). This tends to be a somewhat common mistake and can be quite perplexing :). Anyway, try this: $ rpm -q kernel-module-ntfs or, if that doesn't work: $ rpm -qa | grep -i ntfs should certainly find it. I second the suggestion by Jeff that you try the Livna package instead. You should also learn about yum, which will let you install from Livna (once setup) with a simple "yum install kmod-ntfs" command (as root). Hope this helps.
