Bug Description
Two computers under Feisty Fawn.
Filesystem ext3
1) Open nautilus explorer
2) Create one file named something.txt
2) Create another file named Something.txt
3) Edit something.txt and write "aaaa". Save.
4) Edit Something.txt and write "bbbb". Save.
5) Share the folder containing the two files (Windows Sharing - SMB).
On another computer (with nautilus):
6) Navigate through the network and copy the two files on the Desktop (or elsewhere).
7) Open the two files with text editor
result: both files contains "aaaa".
No errors are signaled during the transfert. This problem can be "dangerous" since the copy is not similar from the original files.

Correct me if I am wrong, but this seems more like an issue with the way Windows handles filename case, not SMB/Ubuntu.
I do not experience the same issue with Sharing Linux -> Linux.
Not that it takes away the issue, just not an issue on our end.
Thanks,
