Via GUI:

  1. Open Services for Network File System: click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Services for Network File System (NFS).

  2. If necessary, connect to the computer you want to manage.

  3. Right-click Server for NFS, and then click Properties.

  4. Click the Filename Handling tab.

  5. Do one of the following:

    • To enable case-sensitive file and directory name lookups:
      Select the Enable case sensitive filename support in Server for NFS check box.
    • To disable case-sensitive file and directory name lookups:
      Clear the Enable case sensitive filename support in Server for NFS check box.

Via the registry:

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\kernel

DWORD “obcaseinsensitive”

  • 1 = system default - insensitive
  • 0 = case sensitive

  • Note: Both need to be done as informed by the link, it's best to do a reboot too...
