Hello, I am no a RedHat expert, but my gut feeling is that you can try another LANG settings. First, see your *.utf locales: % locale -a | grep -i utf ar_AE.utf8 ar_BH.utf8 ar_DZ.utf8 ... and then find something like en_US.utf8, univ.utf8 or C.utf8. I hope setting LANG to one of this values will help. Good luck! -- Regards, | /^^^\ Yury | (| , , |) | | * | E-mail: yury.burkatovsky at telrad dot co dot il | \_-_/ On Wed, 30 Jul 2003, Steffen Kluge wrote: > Hi everybody! > > Recently I upgraded my RedHat 7.x box to 9.
