I haven't used NTFS with full-blown Linux, but Cygwin seems to handle writing to it OK, and use its file permissions.
It works very differently in Linux AFAIK.
Cygwin is still accessing it through the NT kernel and with the Microsoft Security model. I am pretty sure that Linux just ignores file permissions when acessing an NTFS volume, I can't see any other way it would work.
