I run a number of Linux servers at my company and we are always thinking of adding more. We recently switched to a newer web server RHES on a brand new box strange things started to happen. Our perl based mail outs were being delivered moji baki (Japanese term for unreadable Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji characters). Everything else works and displays fine. After a while we traced the problem down to a the perl installation not containing support for Japanese text. My Question is (because I did not do the initial install on this particular server) when you install through the GUI and select default and supported languages like English as default and Japanese Korean and Chinese as languages you need to support. Does it compile all of your RPM installation with support for those languages or is that only for configuration of GUI environments. Additionally is there a switch I need to specify for YUM when telling it to update RPMS (I am personally using a FC2 system) that I want to make sure the packages it download will have support for the my chosen languages. I have researched this and found no real concrete answer so any help would be appreciated. Erin D. Hughes Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. ~ Calvin Coolidge
