        just kicking out an idea here:
        could you do something with smbmount? I know SAMBA name-mangling is
pretty heavily configurable (used it once to change case on a file
transfer); does smbmount have similar options? 
        I'm sure there's a kludge in there for your situation; but I haven't
had to  wrestle much with SMB stuff since I set it up. (which is a Good
Thing; that's why I use Linux. ;> )
