Rem,
You cannot write to NTFS using the stock driver.
Please use Google to search / do research on the drivers out there; writing to
NTFS is a VERY dangerous thing. Your best bet is to just do your work over the
network instead of directly over USB from a Windows-based node.
Also, read the man file for mount_ntfs, it will explain more.

I have a 500GB USB HD which I am able mount thus:
mount_ntfs /dev/da2s1 /mnt
Having done so I can copy from the external drive, but not write to it.
What is necessary to implement in order to be able to write to an external hard
drive?

Duly noted. I shall definitely read the man page, but would also
appreciate a
heads up on the dangers involved in writing to NTFS.
