Reading your thread, I noticed that you never got a reply to the above question. The reason the mountpoint does not exist is that you need to create it.
As root, in a terminal session, just
$ mkdir /mnt/ntfs
If you fave more than one drive or partition, you might also want to
$ mkdir /mnt/ntfs/c (for example) for each drive
and
$ mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/ntfs/c -o ro,uid=<name>
As noted, editing /etc/fstab (as root) automates the process. Oh, the 0,0 at the eand of the fstab linse are physical and logical patrition numbers. Usually 0,0 suffices.
Hope this helps.
