If you're running X, try xmodmap.

To change the Caps_Lock key to have Control functionality do:
  xmodmap -e "remove Lock = Caps_Lock" -e "add Control = Caps_Lock"

To change the Caps_Lock key back to Lock functionality do:
  xmodmap -e "remove Control = Caps_Lock" -e "add Lock = Caps_Lock"

To completely ignore/disable the Caps_Lock modifier, do:
  xmodmap -e "clear lock"

You can initialize your server as desired by doing something like:
  xmodmap .xmodmaprc
where .xmodmaprc contains:
  remove Lock = Caps_Lock
  add Control = Caps_Lock

The implementation is left as an exercise to the user.
