I have an install of FC3 on an ext3 partition, with an older NTFS partition containing an XP install on the same drive.

I am using XP less and less on this particular system, and I need to reclaim more space for /var which is on the drive. What program or utility, if any, would be capable of non-destructively shrinking the NTFS partition while expanding the ext3 partition?

I looked into Partition Magic Pro, but it appears that it does not support ext3, as their site claims only ext2 and swap:

Has anybody used anything else successfully in this manner?

Thanks,

I like the advice i got which was to use a windows program to resize ntfs and fat partitions and a *nix app to resize ext partitions. That way chances of trounle are minimised.
