I actually just did this with ntfsresize from http://mlf.linux.rulez.org/mlf/ezaz/ntfsresize.html.

I downloaded the System Rescue CD from http://www.sysresccd.org/download.en.php. See the answer to question #8 at the ntfsresize site above.

It worked great. Don't forget to defrag the ntfs partition if you are shrinking it.

If you want a commercial alternative try http://www.partition-manager.com/. I saw a lot of bad reviews of Partition Magic on Amazon. I have used neither Partition Magic or Partition Manger

Does anyone know of a free tool to resize an NTFS partition on a hard
drive in preparation for installing fedora to dual boot?

I have researched fips, parted, partition magic, and others and so far
the only one I can find that will allow resizing of the NTFS partition
is PM (not free).

qtparted allows to resize NTFS partitions, but I can't tell you how
reliable that is, how big the chance for damaging NTFS is.
