It is a web based product, but I'm not sure rewriterules would help. Lets say it's something like this
http://www.domain.com/index.php?action=foo
And inside index.php it does something like
<? include($_GET['page'].".php") ?>
This is a gross simplification, but it's my understanding that if the file was named 'foo.php' and someone typed in
http://www.domain.com/index.php?action=Foo
It would still work on windows, but not on linux because of case sensitivity.
Is this a php based app then?
You could look at storing your files in mysql which could be made to be case insensitive and then you could full text index them quicker and easier as well as preserve this functionality across platforms.
