mv loosing files (on NT3.5)

I tried to rename a file from upper to lower case with
mv TEST.TXT test.txt
doing this on my local filesystem (NT4.0 Servicepack 3, NTFS) it works
perfectly. It is not even necessary since bash generally seems to be
able to guess that I mean "TEST.TXT" by typing "test.txt". As long as
no other variations of Test exist.
doing the same on one of our fileservers (NT3.5, NTFS) I get the
following message:
mv: cannot move `TEST.TXT' to `test.txt': No such file or directory
and my file is no more. *sniff*
Seems to be a bug? Did anybody else observe this?
