I had a bit of an "Ooops" moment yesterday, when I had  an urgent     need to share some virtual machines with a colleague; Active     Directory 2003 and DB2 UDB /  IBM Tivoli Directory Integrator.
     
     Having converted them from VirtualBox to VMware ( more on this in     another post ), I went to write them to his USB drive ....
     
     Ah, his drive is formatted with NTFS because he uses Windows .....
     
     ... and my USB drive is formatted with HFS+ because I use it with     Linux and Mac ....
     
     Thankfully, a quick Google search helped me add NTFS support to     CentOS: -
     
     RPMforge       for CentOS 6.0
     
     $ wget http://packages.sw.be/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.i686.rpm
     $  rpm --import http://apt.sw.be/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
     $ rpm -K rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.*.rpm
     $ rpm -i rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.*.rpm
     $ yum -y install ntfs-3g
     
     I've used NTFS-3G and MacFUSE on the OSX Lion box, but this is the     first time I've tried it with CentOS.
     
     Nice one :-)
