Description Steffen Mann 2005-01-05 11:58:33 UTC

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5)
Gecko/20041115 Firefox/1.0

Description of problem:
telnet client and server are both the above version both fully up2date
RHEL3 systems.

/etc/sysconfig/i18n:

LANG="de_DE.UTF8"   #"en_US.UTF-8"
SUPPORTED="de_DE.UTF-8:de_DE:en_GB.UTF-8:en_GB:en:en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en:en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"

on the Server side:

LANG="de_DE.UTF-8"
SUPPORTED="en_GB.UTF-8:en_GB:en:de_DE.UTF-8:de_DE:de"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"


However this should not matter the telnet client does not take the
caracters like ����� and pass them on the the server during a normal
logon scession.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
telnet-0.17-26

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.telnet ip
2. log on a user
3. type caracter like ������ 
    

Actual Results:  diffrent caracters than the expected ones.

Expected Results:  Should pass on these typed caracters.

Additional info:

Tested on two RHEL3 fully up2date systems.

The weird looking characters should be german umlauts like the special
characters for ae oe ue and sz.
