Samba shares...

I am not sure what is going on.  I am unable to get
samba shares to work for an NTFS filesystem.  I do
have several shares working for ext3 filesystems.

Here is what I did:

1) Create an empty directory: /AV
2) chcon -t samba_share_t /AV
3) chmod 775 !$
4) chgrp avusers !$
5) Add to fstab
   /dev/sda1 /AV ntfs defaults 1 2
6) mount -a

+ ls -ldZ /AV
drwxrwxrwx root root system_u:object_r:fusefs_t:s0 AV

+ chcon -t samba_share_t /AV
chcon: failed to change context of /AV to system_u:object_r:samba_share_t:s0: Operation not supported.

+ umount /AV (no errors)
+ chcon -t samba_share_t /AV (no errors)
+ mount /AV (no errors)
+ ls -ldZ /AV
drwxrwxrwx root root system_u:object_r:fusefs_t:s0 AV

So... why does the system insists of fusefs_t?
Does this mean that ntfs filesystems does not support samba_share_context?

HELP!!!

Thanks!
Dan
