Hi, Is there any way to force Parallels to ignore case sensitiveness when using shared folders? I have HFS+ without case sensitive support, but when working with batch processing in XP, file name case sensitiveness errors occur. Just try creating a file named Test.txt in any shared folder and from command line try: dir Test.txt dir test.txt Thanks
Me too After reading about this and hitting my head on this as well, I want to post my similar wish as well. HFS is case preserving and not case sensitive - Finder behaves case insensitive - Terminal behaves case sensitive Now I'm sharing osx folders within WinXp through parallels, to enable TimeMachine backup of Windows files. - Explorer behaves case insensitive - CMD (Dos commandline) behaves case sensitive However: Having all files locally on my Windows drive makes CMD behave case insensitive. Is there any way to think of a feature within Parallels or other configurable method to have CMD behave case insensitive on shared folders? I realize this is not a current situation, I'm just trying to explain my personal need for such a functionality... Thank you for your attention.
Perhaps I'm overlooking something, but... FAT(32) is also case preserving and case insensitive, just like HFS. Is it not possible to think of a feature implementation which would allow CMD to act as such on a Parallels file share? Windows to Windows shares don't seem to suffer from this. Finder behaves case insensitive on HFS, Windows Explorer behaves case insensitive on Parallels shares. I simply don't get it. Is it that the Parallels share uses AFP instead of SMB or something like that? It would perhaps make Windows think that the share is unix-like and make it behave case sensitive. Than what would be a workaround if no feature request is honored?
Samba is not used, I am not sure about feature request , at least it is not to Parallels, maybe to Apple?
