Hello again,

Hope this is the correct forum into which to place this question. If
not, pls just throw the appropr. URL at me.

I have now seen mentioned elsewhere that Linux writing to NTFS is not a
smart move. There is a danger of corrupted data, file loss, etc.

Admittedly these conversations were happening in the context of earlier
both kernel and SAMBA versions. So I will ask with relevance to my own
versions;

Kernel: 2.4.21-27.0.2.EL
(I really don't know how much of that version number is relevant. It's a
WhiteBox dist. based on RHEL 3.0)

SAMBA: 3.0.9

Can someone with more knowledge than I pls give me "an opinion only" on
whether or not it is safe nowadays for Linux to use NTFS as filesystem
to read/write data?

MTiA
