I recently copied over some files to my NTFS Boot Camp partition using ntfs-3g. It worked fine, but I created a bunch of resource fork or ._ files. I thought I'd use Leopard's new `dot_clean` utility to fix them, but when I try `dot_clean -m /Volumes/Presea` (Presea is my NTFS partition), I get a `/Volumes/Presea/Bad Pathname: Not a directory` warning.

I can, however, use it on individual folders on the partition, but I'd like to just eradicate them from the drive once and for all. This kind of example using a thumb drive is even given in Apple's man page, so surely there's a way to do this.
