Hello,
I have a little confusion over one of Samba's configuration options and
I'd like a little clarification over what it does and also what it's
intended to do, if those two are different!
In my smb.conf I have 'case sensitive = yes', along with a couple of the
other options that refer to case. The smb.conf man page says:
case sensitive = yes/no
~ controls whether filenames are case sensitive. If they aren't then
~ Samba must do a filename search and match on passed names
However, if I cd to a mounted samba share I get the following results
from a shell:
ara@zoidberg $ touch test
ara@zoidberg $ file test
test: empty
ara@zoidberg $ file Test
Test: empty
ara@zoidberg $ file test2
test2: Can't stat `test2' (No such file or directory)
IMHO, the correct outcome would be for 'file Test' to have yeilded the
'Can't stat...' message too, as i(n a case sensitive environment)
the
file 'Test' does not exist, only 'test' does.
Is this what I should be seeing? If it is, can someone give me a better
illustration of what 'case sensitive = yes' actually does?
Many thanks,
Andy Arbon
