It would only be a problem if you were storing the .class files under CVS and somehow renaming them before commiting them in. If this does happen the only way at the moment would be to physically rename the file in the repository. A 'cvs rename' wouldn't cure this - the filenames are the same as far as NT is concerned so it wouldn't do anything. Probably the best way if it's a problem is to host on a case preserving OS eg. Unix. For 99.9% of applications you don't want case sensitivity in cvs as it'll just confuse all the windows users.
