Are Unix servers case sensitive?
Linux, the UNIX system, and Windows® observe different conventions for case-sensitivity in file name lookup: Linux and the UNIX system are case sensitive; Windows is not case sensitive.
Are Windows Servers case sensitive?
While the standard behavior is to be case-insensitive, you can assign an attribute flag to make a directory case sensitive, so that it will recognize Linux files and folders that may differ only by case. This may be especially true when mounting drives to the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) file system.
Is Windows command case sensitive?
For the most part MS-DOS, the Windows command line, and most of the commands are not case-sensitive. Unlike case-sensitive command line operating systems, like Linux, commands such as the MS-DOS dir command can be typed as DIR, Dir, or dir.
