[Samba] Win2K Server and Samba Server

[Harry Rüter]

 Hi,

i had a similar problem month a ago.
The reason was an uppercase/downcase-problem.
WinNT & W2K & XP don't have any problems with it,
but Win9x/Me do ...

Look if you have an "preserve case = yes " entry
and change it to "no" ..

If it doesn't help (i don't have access to my private samba-server ,
maybe i don't remember everything )play with those 
uppercase/downcase entries ...
