[ILUG] Samba & Filename Case

[Donncha O Caoimh]

Try put this lot into smb.conf on your Linux box. and look up man 5
smb.conf (I think)

mangled names = yes
mangle case = no
case sensitive = no
preserve case = yes
short preserve case = yes
default case = lower

(ripped out of my own smb.conf.. can't remember what they all do
exactly.)

Donncha.
