Played around bit more with Ghost...
It can image a NTFS disk to file. It can't image a NTFS disk directly to another disk.
I believe that it can.
Monday night working with a client who just purchased six identical Dells,
we deleted and reinstalled the C: drive partition,
formatted as NTFS,
installed WinXP HE and needed drivers to create a "stripped" original.
Cloned it with Ghost 2002 booted from floppy,
targeted one at a time to five other identical Dells.
Used "Disk TO Disk" over Ethernet
(machine to machine - Target in "TCP/IP - Slave" mode,
Source in "TCP/IP Master", "Disk - To Disk").
Worked perfectly.
