mount_ntfs reading problem

I'm having a few problems with mounting and then reading a w2k ntfs partition.
Basically, everything works well when I go to mount, no errors. I can
navigate the tree, and copy files off onto the usr partition.
Problem occurs if I try to use an application ( Kmplayer, mplayer, konquerer,
samba, pretty much anything that just opens the file ) to read the file. I
*CAN* get things to work right if I either copy the file to the /usr
partition, and open it from there, or after copying, open the file from the
ntfs partition and things work fine. The other problem that keeps occuring
is that samba ( navigated off a winXP computer ) will only see the directory
tree if I open a shell, ls -r the mount point, and then back to browser an
look. I still cannot copy a file off the ntfs partition through samba, only
from the home share.
I know this almost sounds like a samba problem, but the variety of programs
that are giving me problems ( even on the local machine ) leads me to believe
something else is going wrong. Any ideas ?
