Quite often one can research a program by examining the RPM package's
information, e.g. like so:

rpm -qi ntfs-3g

This will tell you that the project URL is
http://mlf.linux.rulez.org/mlf/ezaz/ntfs-3g-download.html

There you can read about usage
(http://www.ntfs-3g.org/index.html#usage), which will answer one of
your questions. You probably want to edit an entry into /etc/fstab as
the web page suggests.

As for the write access being esperimental, the FAQ indicates that
write works except for a few circumstances, compressed files for one.
