Porteus uses ntfs-3g but you are probably looking for ntfsprogs. The last version of slackware to include this was 13.37 so search the slackbuilds for this version of slackware.

ntfsprogs was merger with ntfs-3g some time ago. i'm still not sure why slackware's version does not contain 'ntfswipe' while arch package for example does.
will track during next week.

thanks for reporting.
