HELP!! CDROM FILE NAMES IN ALL CAPS

Tom Jackson — Thu, 14 Mar 2002 13:15:51 GMT

Hi:

Something strange is happening... I load an application cd into my cdrom, then mount in my HPJ6000 workstation running HPUX 11.i and all of the file names are uppercase! This is preventing me from installing the software. However, when I mount the cd on my Windows NT PC, you guessed it, the file names are mixed case! Hmmmmmm. The disk is IBM Websphere sofrware for HPUX. I also have two of the disks, both have the same problem. The IBM guys are scratching their heads. Any ideas??
