When you first launch PuTTY, you get the PuTTY Configuration menu. Typically, you click on a pre-saved session under "Saved Sessions", click the "Load" button to load that profile, then click on "Open" to start your terminal session. Follow this procedure instead. Click on a pre-saved session under "Saved Sessions", click the "Load" button to load that profile, but do *not* click on "Open". Instead, move the mouse pointer over the "Category" section on the far left. There should be four major sub-sections there: Session, Terminal, Window, and Connection. Move down to the "Window" section. If it has a plus sign (+) next to it, single left click on the plus sign to turn it into a minus sign, or hyphen (-). This will expose the sub-sections under the Window Subsection. If "Window" already has a hyphen next to it, then the sub-sections under it will already be exposed. You should now see a "Translation" sub-section under "Window". Single left click on "Translation". Now look over on the right side. You should see a section called "Character set translation on received data", under which is a drop-down menu titled "Received Data Assumed to be in which character set". Single left click on the drop-down arrow on the right and pick something from the menu that matches the language/locale that the Debian server is using. Now move the mouse pointer back over to the Category section. Single left click on "Session". Now single left click on the "Save" button under "Load, Save, or Delete a stored session". Now click on "Open" to launch your terminal session. Hope this helps. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
