It has been a while since I last used NTFS, but setting the filesystem type to ntfs and setting the user and uid,gid options in fstab worked for me at dark ages... A sample fstab line might be like:

/dev/hda5 /mnt/bgates ntfs user,noauto,uid=me,gid=me,umask=000 0 0

The user and noauto options let ordinary users to mount/unmount the system, and the noauto option prevents it from being mounted at system startup.
