It appears to be working as designed. I found this link (
http://toasters.mathworks.com/toasters/10980.html) which says:

The problem isn't just with the server, it's the client as well. Any
Unix-based NFS client will also operate in a case-sensitive manner, as far
as I know.

There may be some vendor-specific workarounds (server and client).

HTH,

V5R3 root directory /RMTSRV01 is the empty local directory that I am
mounting over a NFS server. (A snap server 520)

What attribute can be changed on the iSeries side, if any, that will
make this case insensitive?
