[Samba] Re: Case Sensitive Problem

[Kevin Lester]

I'm sorry.  I'm be happy to go into more detail.  I appreciate your 
suggestion.

/usr/local/bouncer is the directory
inside of that directory is another directory called Bouncer.  It contains 
some perl modules.  

also under /usr/local/bouncer is perl file called bouncer.  

Everything mounts fine.  Bouncer and boucer both show up.  But because of some 
case sensitive issue, i'm guessing, I can't cd  into Bouncer or edit bouncer.  
If I change bouncer to bouncer.pl and remount, everything is good, which adds 
to my evidence that this is a case sensitive problem.  adding the .pl 
extention isn't really an option since I'm adding to the code and everything 
else in the systems expects the file to be named just bouncer.

Hopefully this explains my problem.  If not please let me know and I will try 
and go into further depth.  Especially if it gets my problem solved. :)

Thanks again.
