I have a 300G NTFS drive in a USB enclosure. How can I get USB to use the 3G file system?

Suppose your external partition is e.g. /dev/sdc1, then make a folder to mount it in, e.g. /mnt/ntfs
If you want windows-like permissions like this: drwxrwxrwx, then insert into fstab like this:
Code:
/dev/sdc1/mnt/ntfs****ntfs-3g****defaults****0 0
If you want Linux-like permissions like this: drwxr-xr-x, then insert into fstab like this:
Code:
/dev/sdc1****/mnt/ntfs****ntfs-3g****uid=1002,gid=100,umask=0022****0 0
