10.4: Prevent .DS_Store file creation on network volumes
Is there a similar tip for stopping these files appearing on mounted non-Apple volumes, such as memory sticks, digital camera's, my Sony PSP and my SonyEricsson K750i mobile phone?

Yes. Or mp3 players for those of us who haven't joined the iPod "revolution".

What third party cleaner do you use? I've had mixed results and even resorted to using VirtualPC for keeping my MemoryStick clean, which isn't just an inconvenience in my case, those files cause a direct conflict.
Shell Script cleanup
I use /bin/sh!
Seriously, I use something very similar to the following to keep my CVS server's repository clean of excess junk, including Apple, Windows, Paintshop Pro and ws_ftp crap. It requires root privs.
*Note: I'm no bash überguru, so this might not be the most effective way to get it done, but I do use that grep, sed and sh string on a production Debian server at work. I did test the non-linux command modification to see if it would delete anything crazy on my Powerbook and it didn't. To see what would have been deleted without actually deleting anything, just remove the "| /bin/sh" from the end of the command. It will then just print out a bunch of "rm -f" commands which don't actually do anything.
