[ale] OTQ - CDs, 'mkisofs', mixed-case filenames, and HP-UX

Hello -

We're having a problem creating CD's with filenames which read properly in
HP-UX. I use 'mkisofs' in Linux, WinNT/Cygwin, and even in HP-UX. Default
filenames get terminal '.' (periods), which I can suppress, BUT I haven't
been able to get mixed-case names from my CDs to read properly back in
HP-UX, though they look fine in Linux and MSWin. I tried '-J' and '-R'
switches, and about to try the '-U' switch when making the ISO image.

Effect is the same whether the original file tree originated in HP-UX,
Linux, or WinNT.I have tried various options when mounting the CDs back in
HP-UX, without joy.

$%^&!!

Anyone have a magic bullet for this?
