[ILUG] Samba & Filename Case

[ILUG] Samba & Filename Case

John Mc Donald johnmcd at cs.may.ie

I have a linux box share out some directories to my Win95 box.
The problem is that every time I create a new file/directory in
m$ explorer somewhere along the line something is insisting on
capitalising the entire filename.

I have messed around a bit with the name mangling options in
samba but haven't managed to fix it. Does anyone know exactly
where does the problem lie here (i.e. Win95 or samba), and
more importantly how to fix it?

BTW an answer to the first part of the question resembling
"using Win95", although technically correct, doesn't help me : )

TIA,
John.
