To set default encoding for a shared directory

1. Open Windows Explorer.
2. In the details pane, right-click the shared directory you want to manage.
3. Click Sharing.
4. Click NFS Sharing.
5. In the Encoding list, select the type of encoding to be used for file and directory names in the shared directory. In addition to the default American National Standards Institute (ANSI) encoding, the following encoding is available:
   • BIG5 (Chinese)
   • EUC-JP (Japanese)
   • EUC-KR (Korean)
   • EUC-TW (Chinese)
   • GB2312-80 (Simplified Chinese)
   • KSC5601 (Korean)
   • SHIFT-JIS (Japanese)

   If this option is set to ANSI on systems configured for non-English locales, the encoding scheme is set to the default encoding scheme for the locale. The following are the default encoding schemes for the indicated locales:

   • Japanese: SHIFT-JIS
   • Korean: KS_C_5601-1987
   • Simplified Chinese: GB
   • Traditional Chinese: BIG5

Notes

• For information on how to open Windows Explorer, see To open Windows Explorer.
• There is no command -line method for this procedure. Using a command line, you set the default encoding only when you share the directory. For more information on how to share a directory, see Related Topics.
