In the netatalk configuration file AppleVolumes.default you can set 
casefold options so that a client sees all uppercase filenames.

<<
casefold options [syntax: casefold:option]:
tolower    -> lowercases names in both directions
toupper    -> uppercases names in both directions
xlatelower -> client sees lowercase, server sees uppercase
xlateupper -> client sees uppercase, server sees lowercase
