My bet is that the DOS floppy stage is corrupting your filenames. My
current system is a peer-peer app with 1500 classfiles that are
compiled on and run on all permutations of win95/winnt/macos/solaris/linux
with nary a problem (well, ok - so some MacOS VMs cannot deal with
some zip formats...). For moving stuff between linux and the DOS
world, I usually use samba - if I must use a floppy/ZipDisk, I'll
pre-zip my class tree.
good luck,
