I have a successful mount (with read and write) of a NTFS file system:

/dev/sdb1 on /mnt-ntfs1 type fuseblk (rw,allow_other,blksize=4096)
/dev/sdb2 on /mnt-ntfs2 type fuseblk (rw,allow_other,blksize=4096)

[ykarant@jb344 ~]$ ls /mnt-ntfs1

This worked under the stock SL X86-64 kernel, as well as the kernel I 
had to build that also supports USB 3.

 From uname -a:  2.6.38.8-32.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jul 11 16:29:12 PDT

If you need assistance, I can provide the NTFS fuse binaries, etc., for 
NTFS fuse to work.
