How could i enable windows file system ntfs in redhat5, or should i enable it in Kernel first , and how i do that??

You probably want to use NTFS-3G, which is based on FUSE, and not actually built into the kernel.

red hat 5 WHAT ???
the current in the 5 series is 5.6
RHEL 6.0 is the current

red hat has this VERY VERY well documented on there site
Did you read the rhel docs?????
http://www.redhat.com/support/
login and search for ntfs

the install instructions ARE VERY VERY VERY yes VERY different( a known bug ) for rhel5.3 and older and for 5.4 ,5.5 ,and 5.6

if you are NOT paying for red hat , then DO NOT use it !
install CEntOS 5.5 instead

for the CentOS instructions see:
