Hi,
I noticed users in VSS are case-insensitive and stored as upper-case (I
tried renaming them to lower-case without success). Is this true?
They are not stored as all-uppercase in VSS, although if you initially
named them that way, VSS may not consider it a rename if you change only
the case. Perhaps it would work if you changed the name to something
else, then back to the desired case.
VSS seems to force first letter to be upper case, and the others to
lowercase.
It must be the GUI that forces that restriction. You may have luck with
the following approach:
* Move or rename the file um.dat in your VSS "data" directory.
* Edit the "users.txt" file in the root of you VSS directory to change
the names and/or case of your users.
* Run VSS analyze.exe with the "-f" (fix) option on your "data"
directory to restore the um.dat file with your new names.
* Open VSS Admin and VSS Explorer using the new um.dat; if it doesn't
work restore the old one.
