It certainly does, I share (well, not share, but can access it.) a NTFS
partition between XP and Ubuntu and can read/write from either OS with
no problems.  Ubuntu sees all the NTFS drives on my computer, and with
proper permissions set, can access them all.  Windows only sees it self.
(So more like a mirror than a window)
