I have the AFS client installed on Windows XP.  When I place a file on an 
AFS share from Windows, the file permissions (as viewed from a linux 
client) are -rwxrwxrwx.  Because linux sees the file as executable, it 
allows me to attempt  to execute the file.  This happens whether the file 
is text, binary or otherwise.  If I copy a file from a linux client to an 
AFS share, the file maintains the same permissions it had before being 
copied to the AFS share.  Does anyone know how to prevent files from being 
set as executable when copied from Windows to AFS and then viewed on 
linux?


Thanks for any assistance,

Tyler
