So the files, regardless of their capitalization, are found properly on the drive when using Windows. But the same files, on the same fat32 drive, were not being found using Linux because their extensions weren't capitalized the way they needed to be. So I was just trying to rename the darn things with the proper capitalization, which, ironically, works in Windows, even though Windows doesn't actually care about the differences. For example: d:\>dir s* 28/08/2001 12:49p 4,066 styles.CSS d:\>ren styles.css *.css d:\>dir s* 28/08/2001 12:49p 4,066 styles.css IOW, Windows doesn't *care* about the capitalization, but can rename at will. Linux cares about the capitalization, but refused to let me rename. I had to copy to a new temporary file then delete the original then rename the temp to the original filename with the proper capitalization. A pain in the butt. -- Trevor Smith | trevor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
