The adaptation of NetWare 4 for use with multiple languages.
The NetWare 4 operating system, NLM programs, and utilities use English as the default language but can be set to several other languages.
You can have NLM programs running in different languages at the same time.
The formats for expressing dates, times, and numbers also change across languages, and sometimes change across locales within a given language area.
In NetWare 4, you can configure certain local formats through INSTALL.NLM. You specify the formats when installing the NetWare server, but you can reconfigure these formats with INSTALL.NLM while the server is running.
You can configure the following information:
The following are some formats for various locales:

NetWare 4 supports the following languages:
You can set the language for the following:
You must set the server language when loading SERVER.EXE. Setting the language later requires you to reboot the NetWare server.
The server language is determined by the SERVER.MSG file.
See Setting a Server's Language in Supervising the Network .
You must specify the language you want NLM messages to be displayed in. To set the language for the message file, use the LANGUAGE.NLM.
You can change the language for NLM messages anytime. It is not necessary to reboot the server.
See Specifying a Language for an NLM in Supervising the Network .
Set the server keyboard type by loading KEYB.NLM and executing the KEYB console command.
You can change the keyboard type anytime. It is not necessary to reboot the server.
