For better or worse, both major desktop OSes are stuck with a legacy of case-insensitive filesystems. As a result, while the OSes themselves work fine with case-sensitive filesystems these days, many applications seriously misbehave when run or when working off of a case-sensitive filesystem.
I have recently run into this in a situation where encfs would be ideal, but discovered with some pain that, by default at least, it exposes a case-sensitive volume when run under fuse4x on Mac OS X. Is there a current workaround or option to enable HFS+-like case-insensitive behavior? How straightforward would it be to add one? (I'm glad to try it myself, but would appreciate a word of warning before I try if the experienced developers expect it to be a losing proposition, either technically or because you wouldn't accept such a patch.) Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
