I would advice against overriding the default settings in a script and instead to set the correct locale for the system. Most system settings in RHEL based distros are made in the sysconfig directory:
http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.1/Deployment_Guide/s2-sysconfig-i18n.html In this case, if the locale does not exist, just install it. Since the en_US locale is included in the glibc-common RPM try to reinstall or update that RPM. -km On 18/05, Fred Johanson wrote: > For my users with Unicode files on UNIX clients, I recommend this be added to > the startup scripts for the scheduler or CAD: > > > LANG=en_US > > LC_ALL=en_US > > export LANG > > export LC_ALL > > > However, a user running CentOS thinks that en_US does not exist in that > flavor of LINUX, so he misses 1000s of files each night. > > Anyone have any thoughts on this? > > > Fred Johanson > TSM Administrator > University of Chicago > > 773-702-8464
