Unable to mount external USB with ntfs partition in cent os

[smc_linux]

I have 500GB external HDD. I have to mount it my CenOS -4.8 Machine.(kernel-2.6.9.89EL 32-bit) .
External HDD partitions are ntfs file system partition.
I have tried to mount ntfs partition in linux . But it's not done.

Can anyone help me to mount partition with ntfs parttion in linux.
Thanks in advance.

Welcome!
Is your kernel compiled with NTFS support? Have you install ntfsprogs and/or ntfs-3g?

Thanks for reply.

I have checked "modprobe -l | grep ntfs" .... but there is no output.
I think my kernel not supports to ntfs.
I tried to install ntfs-3g also but .. it was asking for dependencies... and it failed.
How I install ntfs-3g or/and ntfsprogs on my cent-os m/c??

Thanks ...
