[jira] [Commented] (GUACAMOLE-649) Allow SSH locale to be explicitly set

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-649?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16764204#comment-16764204 ] 

Nick Couchman commented on GUACAMOLE-649:
-----------------------------------------

There was a PR merged on the server-side for this - is there still a client-side piece to do, or was the server-side piece all that was needed?

> Common SSH clients like Putty seems to automatically forward the user's locale settings during the connection process. The mechanism which allows this appears to be the standard POSIX {{LANG}} environment variable.
> Without providing some mechanism for specifying the locale, the language on the remote side may not match expectations, and the character set may be set to something which is not UTF-8, resulting in compatibility issues.
