I'm having some trouble with a certain environment variable. In Xwindows, when I use ANY terminal emulator (xterm, weterm, wterm etc), there is an environment variable LC_CTYPE set to 'en_US'. This plays complete havoc. I cannot update my locate database, use locate or mount samba shares with smbfs until I manually set that variable to "" Can anyone tell me what set's that variable so I can kill it very dead? It has to do with the locale....... Thanks Warren Bell To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
