Appendix D. National Language Support

OS/400 Integration Products for NetWare is available in the same language versions as OS/400. You receive an installation diskette in the specified national language version you have ordered. In addition, you must order a CD-ROM version of Novell NetWare 4.1 in the national language appropriate for your country. 

Check with the Novell NetWare reseller in your country to check availability. 

If you want to use more than one national language version of NetWare, you must install additional languages. It is possible to run Integration Services for FSIOP, 5716-SA2, and OS/400 Integration for Novell NetWare, 5716-SA3 in English and yet order and run a different language version of Novell NetWare. Similarly, if you have multiple language versions of the NetWare languages, you can set the language on your server for a specific user. 

  If you are using the Japanese version of NetWare, you must use the Japanese version of Integration Services for FSIOP, 5716-SA2. For NetWare 4.11, three additional DBCS languages are supported. They are Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean. If you are using one of these versions of NetWare on an Integrated PC Server, then you also must use the matching version of Integration Services for FSIOP. 

For more information on national language support for the Integration Services for FSIOP feature, see Integration Services for File Server I/O Processor. For more information on specifying a language for NLMs, see Novell NetWare 4.1 Supervising the Network


Installation and National Language Considerations

When you first logon to a NetWare server from RCONSOLE, you may receive a message indicating there is a code page mismatch between the NetWare server and the workstation running RCONSOLE. If you want to ensure both the NetWare server and the workstation are running the same code page, you have two alternatives. You can change the network server description on the AS/400 to change the NetWare server code page or you can change the workstation code page in the CONFIG.SYS file. 

To change the network server description code page, use the Change Network Server Description (CHGNWSD) command and change the CODEPAGE parameter to match the code page specified on the workstation. 

To change the workstation code page, edit the CONFIG.SYS file, changing the following line CODEPAGE=xxx where xxx is the codepage you are changing. 

NetWare Language Names and Identifiers

You can specify the language support needed on the NetWare server. You can also specify the drive and path of the source of the CD-ROM image. 

Use this parameter to specify the language to be installed on the NetWare server. These are the values used in the NTWLNGID parameter in the INSNTWSVR command. 

NetWare requires you provide a language identifier as well as a language name. The language identifier must match the language name. 

Table D-1 lists languages and their identifiers.

The asterisk (*) represents languages for which a message file exists. 

The plus (+) symbol indicates that the Russian message files may not exist in NetWare 4.11. If they do not exist and you select Russian, the default message file will be used instead. NetWare will display a message indicating that the default message file is being used because the message file for the language selected is not available. 

If the language you need is not listed, refer to the Novell NetWare CD-ROM and documentation to determine the language name or identifier. 

The language name is found in the NW410\INSTALL\ directory. For NetWare 4.11, the language name is found in the PRODUCTS\NW411\_\411\LOGIN\NLS\ directory. 

The language number is the name of the directory found in the directory \NW410\BOOT\NLS on the CD-ROM. 

For NetWare 4.11, the language number is found in the PRODUCTS\NW411\_\411\SYSTEM\NLS\ directory.
