Hi list,

I am writing some admin-tools and therefore make use of
win32net.NetLocalGroupEnum()
method. Everything works fine except for outputing the results. I get the
error message that
ASCII only has 128 valid characters. In german Windows 2K vers the default
Admin-
Account contains a auml (ae / ä) - letter.Using
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'de') as
suggested in the library-reference also fails for some reason.

Finally I got to converting the result with msg.encode('latin-1') which
didn' t produce an
error but mismapped the character. a german auml (ae) became a otilde (o~) -
didn' t
check for other mismatches. The same with other applying layouts i tried. My
question
is if anyone had similar problems? Is this some misconfiguration of
code-pages? Or do
i have to perform manual character-mapping... which did work but didn' t
look
reasonable at all...

thanks for your inputs in advance,

greets,

julian
