I disagree.

The problem is that when, for example, two files “test.test” and
“test.TEST” are being addressed they should be treated as the exact same
file, as case sensitivity should be off and SAMBA should not care about
letter cases. They do when being addressed by a Windows (7) machine, in
my setup, but they do not when they are being created by a LINUX client
(mount options see above). When they are created by that LINUX machine,
SAMBA allows “test.test” and “TEST.test” to be two different,
independent files when it should not.

I do not think that the client is the issue because when being connected
to a Windows share the behaviour is as desired.
