AS/U provides European
character support for Windows 95 and Windows NT clients. AS/U also
supports MS-DOS and Windows 3.x clients using PC437, PC850, or PC861
code pages. To enable European character support for Windows 95
and Windows NT, which includes applications running in DOS-PROMPT
windows under these environments, the AS/U server must be started
with the environment variable LANG set to the appropriate HP-UX
locale. For example, for German characters support:
export LANG=de_DE.iso88591 net start server
or
Set
the lanman.ini parameter [lmxserver]lang=de_DE.iso88591,
then type:
net start server.
The lanman.ini parameter [lmxserver]lang
may be used to override the LC_CTYPE setting of the LANG variable.
The default for this entry is "", which will take
the locale from the HP-UX LANG variable. HP recommends that you
explicitly set the lanman.ini parameter [lmxserver]lang
to the desired locale to prevent accidentally starting AS/U in an
incorrect locale.
To enable European character support for MS-DOS and Windows
3.x clients, and certain 16-bit Windows applications running under
Windows 95, the following lanman.ini parameter
has been added to AS/U: [hpparms] msdoscodepage=437
Following are the currently supported values for this parameter:
msdoscodepage=437
MS-DOS Latin US (default)
msdoscodepage=850
MS-DOS Latin 1
msdoscodepage=861
MS-DOS Icelandic
The AS/U server must be running in an ISO8859-1 locale for
meaningful mapping of the selected European [hpparms]msdoscodepage
parameter.
The AS/U server must be restarted for the [hpparms]msdoscodepage
parameter change to take effect. See appendix in this guide
for information on how to change keywords in the lanman.ini
file.
You cannot administer resource permissions on shares that
contain German umlauts in their names from the Windows 95 Explorer.
Permissions can be administered if the resource is accessed through
the Network Neighborhood. Microsoft has acknowledged this behavior
but has indicated that it is by design, and no fixes will be forthcoming.
