Chapter 3
Gateway Localization
This chapter describes gateway localization and identifies the tasks required to set up
additional gateway locales. The chapter contains the following sections:
• Unicode and Support for UTF-8 (page 43)
• How the Gateway Selects a Character Set (page 44)
• Special Characters (page 45)
• Gateway Locales (page 46)
• Setting Up Locales for Translation (page 46)
Unicode and Support for UTF-8
Unicode is a character set containing all the characters of all the world's major languages.
There are different standard methods to encode Unicode, including UCS-2, which is NT's
Unicode version, and UTF-8, the version of Unicode specified by version 3 of the LDAP
protocol.
The Directory Server and associated applications use UTF-8 in versions 2 and 3 of LDAP.
Most software included in the Directory Server uses UTF-8 internally and at interfaces
other than LDAP (for example, in command-line parameters and LDIF files).
NOTE Netscape Communicator and Netscape browsers support UTF-8.
