I am running an Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS server. Frequently I open up files using AFP from my Mac. Inevitably this created .DS_Store files on the server (although for some reason they are named :2eDS_Store. However, it also creates variants on DS_Store files. These variants are often named similarly to other files in that directory. E.g.:

~$ ls
total 60K
-rw-r--r--  1 tarakhovsky  16K 2010-11-30 18:28 :2eDS_Store
drwx--S---  4 tarakhovsky 4.0K 2010-11-08 13:58 :2eTemporaryItems/
lrwxrwxrwx  1 tarakhovsky   15 2010-10-19 17:44 bigdisk -> /media/bigdisk//
...
drwxr-xr-x  3 tarakhovsky 4.0K 2010-11-03 18:24 Temporary Items/
drwxr-xr-x  3 tarakhovsky 4.0K 2010-11-30 01:34 tmp/
...

I've disabled creation of DS_Store files using:

defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores true

so hopefully this won't continue to occur—but I really want to get rid of all of the existing variants of DS_Store files already on the server. Any ideas as to why these variants are being created and how I can get rid of them all?
