I have an OSX host with a ubuntu VM trying to mount a shared folder.

I'm using the options:

sudo mount -t vboxsf -o uid=1000,gid=100 pg ~/pg-host

The folder mounts fine, however it appears that the mounted directory is case-insensitive, even though my OSX drive is formatted case-sensitive.

Are there any options to control this behavior ?
