I don't have a Win2K NTFS partition handy to verify, but I know that was the
advice given on one of my other mailing lists, when others had problems

You're right; FAT32 is easier/better for situations like this. However, NTFS
partitions are generally better for Win systems (journalling, ACLs, etc -
none of which FAT32 does).
