We have an application that was build on a windows platform that expects a case insensitive file system. Is there a way to set one up in CentOS? NTFS should work, I think, but I feel uneasy using that under Linux. Russ
FAT32 may work too if you don't need large files. I just tried NTFS-3G on a thumbdrive, and I was able to create a file that differed only by case from another. Then something got corrupted.
