Thank you for your patience.

I did what you told me, but i get:

"login_getclass: unknown class 'pt_PT'"

Did you create a login class 'pt_PT' in login.conf?

  pt_PT:Portugeese users:\
        :charset=iso-8859-1:\
        :lang=pt_PT.ISO8859-1:\
        :tc=default:

and did you run

  # cap_mkdb login.conf

after that?

The main reason I like to create a specific class is to keep default as is, but if you're the only one on your system, you could set 'lang' and 'charset' in the default section and leave the class-field in the password file empty.

The important thing is to set the charset variable.

True, it is not completly obvious how to get it right, and there is more than one way to do it which can be confusing. The individual user can override the varables set in login.conf(5) by editing .login_conf.

If you feel you need to play and test, it might be wise to try and set some environment viriables: MM_CHARSET and LANG are set by the above mentioned.

Cheers, Erik

PS: While you are at it, you might want to change password format to blowfish (blf) instead of md5, this is also done in login.conf. But that's another story :-)
