Hi Jason,

First, I would suggest sending posts like this to the freebsd-questions@
list rather than freebsd-ports at .

Second, try installing sysutils/fusefs-kmod and sysutils/fusefs-libs from
the ports tree, and then try installing the NTFS-3G source again:

# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-libs
# make install clean
# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-kmod
# make install clean

Good luck!
