I want a case sensitive sql statement to control the logins to my website.
I currently use the following statement, however, it does not match case.
SELECT userid,username,firstname, lastname, email, usertype, securelevel, upload, download FROM useraccount WHERE username='"+request.getParameter("id")+"' and password='"+request.getParameter("password")+"'"

It is a setting on the database during installation if I remember correctly. If you set it, it effects everything on the box. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Eric is correct in that case sensitivity definitely depends on the database. Many, like Oracle, are case sensitive by default. Which database are you using?
I don't know of any db setting that leaks through to the OS. However in this case, it is the SQL/db that is requiring the case sensitivity anyway.
