Prevent EFS on file shares?

Hi all, Is there anyway I can prevent EFS encrypted files from appearing on the file server? We have laptop users with with EFS enabled, and it works well. However, when they copy files up to the file server they stay EFS encrypted - which is no use when others in their department try to open them! Is there anyway to disable EFS in a given directory?

I think you need to disable the server' trust relationship for delegation to any service (which includes EFS). You can confiure that in Active Directory Users and Computers. Look at the property sheet for that server, and look on the Delegation tab.
