MJM,
Go to a console session on the Unix box and list the contents of your
drawing file directory and make sure that the file names are lower case. If
they are not, try renaming (mv) them to lower case and try again. If that
helps there is a Samba force lower case parameter that can be invoked, check
Samba documents for instructions.
