Description Marc Kaplan 2003-05-06 09:15:36 UTC 
Win9x clients completely break when the smb.conf parameter case sensitivity = 
Yes is set. The behavior I'm seeing is that clients cannot cd into directories 
when case sensitive = yes. If this is something that CANNOT work (which is what 
I'm hearing from Samba Team members), we need to document it in big letters in 
the man page and the howto.
