NT4sp3/samba case sensitivity problems

We just upgraded a server from v1.9.something to v2.0.2. In the
process, we moved from "preserve case = no" to "preserve case =
yes" (with a side trip through "case sensitive = yes" and back).
I have begun to notice an annoying problem with deleting files from
NT by selecting the file and pressing delete. If the file is named
something like "Asdf.txt", it deletes without a problem. But if it is
named "ASDF.TXT", "asdf.txt", or any mixture of case other than
"Asdf.txt", pressing delete usually cases a dialog to pop up saying
"Cannot delete asdf: Cannot find the specified file." Every once in
a while, the delete confirmation dialog will pop up as expected.
But if I cancel that dialog and immediately press delete again, the
error will pop up instead. (Note that dragging to the trash appears
to work every time.)
Any ideas what is causing this and how I can make it stop?
Thanks,
Dave
