FTP folder case insensitive

Hi ppl,

I have client who moved his FTP server from Win server to CentOS. Can I make one specific FTP folder and its subfolders case insensitive ? If yes, please - how.

Thank you.

By default, no -- Linux (and thus the various modules that use it) is case sensitive.

That said, doing a little Googling, it looks like ProFTPd does have a non-standard module to it called "mod_case", which may in fact do what you're after.

I have no experience with it, or with installing it, so I can't speak to how well it works, or how hard it is to install.

However, if you're interested in exploring, you may be able to get what you're after with that FTP module :-)
