If you use Apache, try this solution:

Add this line to /etc/apache2/mods-available/speling.load:

CheckSpelling on

Enable speling module by this command:

a2enmod speling

And restart Apache:

/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Otherwise I strongly recommend to have strict name convention of files that matches with their URL.

    If you want mod_spelling to just fix the case of the URLs you should use the following directive too: CheckCaseOnly On – Khai Aug 19 '10 at 13:19

You can either use mod_speling for a solution for this problem in your web server or use something like ciopfs to solve the problem on the file system level (without renaming the files, which would be the best solution).

I'd go with mod_speling and progrssively fix the filenames and their links in your web pages.
