Description Steve Douglas (dead mail address) 2009-10-28 12:14:15 UTC 
I don't think Stream names should not be case sensitive.  They are case sensitive, unlike a win2k3 R2 file server CIFS share.

I am running samba with (vfs objects = streams_depot) in the smb.conf file.

In the following example, drive Y: is mapped to a win2k3 R2 CIFS
share, while drive Z: is mapped to a Samba 3.4.0 share.  I have
created an ADS "streams.exe:Zone.Identifier".

---------------------- Samba behavior -----------
Z:\>more < streams.exe:Zone.Identifier
[ZoneTransfer]
ZoneId=3

Z:\>more < streams.exe:zone.identifier
The system cannot find the file specified.

-------------------------- Windows Behavior ------------
Y:\>more < streams.exe:Zone.Identifier
[ZoneTransfer]
ZoneId=3

Y:\>more < streams.exe:zone.identifier
[ZoneTransfer]
ZoneId=3

Potential Patch for this issue?

Here is what I did to get this to work for me.  Basically just concatenated :$DATA" to the stream name before doing the comparison to see if the file already exists.

good point, we should also make a torture test for this I think.
