Login, localy and remotly dont work without capitalization, but the prompt is lowercase from local terminal, see below :

administrator@[MACHINE NAME] ~
$ ssh administrator@[MACHINE NAME]
administrator@[MACHINE NAME]'s password:
Ctrl+c

administrator@[MACHINE NAME] ~
$ ssh Administrator@[MACHINE NAME]
