I modified my login module. To upperCase the username on login.  The
problem is with the valve reading from pages/_user/. Solaris is case
sensitive on folders so when a user capitalized there name differently
LDAP still authenticated them because it is case insensitive.  But the
psml valve said that user doesn't have a folder so it made a new one
with the different capitalization.

Not out of the box. How are you creating your users? If you are  
creating the users with the Administrative portlets (User Manager,  
User Registration) I would consider adding a new feature to convert  
the usernames to all lower or upper case. Feel free to create a JIRA  
issue and assign it to me
