Files Saved to NetWare Server via GSNW Don't Retain Case

ID: Q152302

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows NT Workstation versions 3.5, 3.51
Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5, 3.51

SYMPTOMS

The file names of files saved to a NetWare server through Gateway Services for Netware (GSNW) do not maintain the correct case. If the file is saved in lowercase with fewer than 8 characters, it will default to all uppercase. If the file name is greater than 8 characters, the lowercase format is maintained. This may cause case-sensitive applications to fail.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT versions 3.5 and 3.51. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
