Hi, I think this depends which O/S you use.
I had a problem with encoding on a Sun Unix box running JDK 1.1. It is documented somewhere in the old helma xmlrpc news archives - something around the UTF-8 Sun library being named utf8 without the hyphen. We managed to code round it until we upgraded to JDK1.2.2 which worked fine without modifying the original classes. Is there a reason why you cannot upgrade?

As you mention, 1.1 will probably still work for the client, but I wouldn't count on this being the case always.
