Duplicate files
Recently we've noticed we have random lowercase duplicates files. Not all files are duplicateds but seems like when we open or edit a file, that's either in all caps or partial caps a day or two later a new file will appear that's in all lower case along with the original? We access/edit these files using both PC's and Mac's. Any ideas?

Do you ever have one file open in both a PC and a Mac? OneOS being case sensitive and the other not might cause a problem if one is saving when the other also has the file open.

It happens on both types of users, some files only Win Users open and some files only Mac Users open and we've seen it happen shortly after the file was created and it was only used by the original creator.
