IMO this is _very_ dangerous behaviour, one would expect Linux

Is this a known issue? Right know I have only Fedora at hand, but
I wonder if other distro's have it too.


heres what i got.,.. theres gotta be something wrong with your
fedora.. i am using mandrake 9.2..


Just checked on both my fedora 2115 and 2135 systems and they are
ok, its not something dim with the filesystem options? (Case
insensitve perhaps?) sounds like a NTFS/VFAT feature to me.



*blush* I has nocaseglob set. I should have seen that, sorry for making an idiot of myself :-\



hmmm... ya... TELLING it to ignore case *has* been known to induce that behaviour in the past. Sheesh! Now *I* feel like a dummy because I didn't think to suggest that. :)
