6.3 Localization Issues

The following are the NetWare FTP Server localization FAQs:

When using FTP Server on a Japanese language machine, the user is not placed in the home directory. How can I resolve this?

Action: To resolve this, replace backslashes (\) with forward slashes (/) as path separators in the user's home directory path. In ConsoleOne®, right-click User, then click Properties > General > Environment > Modify.

Does FTP Server support files and directories created in a DOS name space on a server with double-byte characters?

Explanation: If you create a file or directory in a DOS name space on a server with double-byte characters, the file or directory is created on that server with the name specified. However, the message to the FTP client might contain a different file or directory name. This happens in particular with the 0x8374 character in Shift_JIS, 30D5 in Unicode*, which is converted to 0x8354 in Shift_JIS, 30B5.
