You don't want to write to an ntfs filesystem from Linux.

The directory perms have nothing to do with it.  Check the mounting 
perms.  If it's not listed in /etc/fstab, then add it.

Again, you don't want to write to an nfts fs from Linux.  Unless you 
don't want to use it anymore as an ntfs filesystem.
