Setting a locale

Does anyone know how to set a locale? I need to add hebrew to the locale setting on one of the machines.

Re: Setting a locale

man locale

Use locale -a to show all the potential locales on your system.

locale to display the operating locale.

/etc/rc.config.d/LANG
to set for boot.

Later,
Bill

It works for me (tm)

Take a look at the manpage localedef(1M) which is used to generate a locale environment.
