Hello Everyone, I recently installed a MSCLIENT machine each time it writes to my samba 2.04b share it produces all uppercase filenames. Is the best way to handle this with "preserve case = yes/no" controls if new files are created with the case that the client passes, or if they are forced to be the "default" case. Default Yes. "short preserve case = yes/no" controls if new files which conform to 8.3 syntax, that is all in upper case and of suitable length, are created upper case, or if they are forced to be the "default" case. This option can be use with "preserve case = yes" to permit long filenames to retain their case, while short names are lowered. Default Yes Although both are defaulted to yes, I was hoping that msclient has a switch to toggle the case. Just might be too sophisticated for MSCLIENT though. :) Thanks In Advance!
