SSH Unzip Command

[matt6805]

I have a small issue that's probably easy to answer. If I upload a zip file to a Linux server, and run this command via SSH:

unzip -a name_of_zip.zip

Although it does unzip the directories as expected, it makes all file names and folders lowercase. This is a problem when trying to install software that relies on case sensitive names.

Does anyone know what command tells the server to retain the file names and not alter them?

Regards,
Matt

Try it without the -a.

Isn't "-a" the option to convert text files?

I think it's "-U", but they were talking about changing that, so it might have something to do with "-L" instead.

To the OP:

ssh me@linuxhost man unzip
