If you are using a lredir drive, the relevant code is in dosext/mfs/mfs= =2Ec, in dos_fs_redirect(). It looks like the file is created verbatim to th= e DOS create command; if the DOS programmer happened to use all uppercase or some mixed case in his program, the file is actually created with that case on the unix side, even though on the dos side it is all treated as universal case. I agree that having mixed case filenames under unix tends to be an annoyance. Perhaps this should be made into a configurable option. --=20 Ryan Underwood, , icq=3D10317253 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" = in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
