It provides safe : handling of the Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000, Windows : Vista, Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 NTFS file systems. NTFS-3G can : create, remove, rename, move files, directories, hard links, and streams; : it can read and write normal and transparently compressed files, including : streams and sparse files; it can handle special files like symbolic links, : devices, and FIFOs, ACL, extended attributes; moreover it provides full : file access right and ownership support. But it looks like whereas you installed epel-release, it's not enabled. Check if it's enabled in /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo, the [epel] section should have a enabled=1 line (or run `yum install --enablerepo=epel ntfs-3g`) to enable it temporarily).
