Why doesn't Linux display Japanese file names encoded in UTF-8?

[Jim Z]

I created a few Japanese file and directory names in UTF-8 in Windows. Then I logged in from Linux (7.3) that is configured to run Japanese. From the login 'language' I can only select 'Japanese (eucJP)' (there is no Japanese (UTF-8)). I did a 'showmount -e 10.xxx.xxx.xxx' but I got scambled Japanese characters for those entries that are encoded in UTF-8. Then I switched the locale to ja_JP.UTF-8, but the same stuff was returned. What's wrong with this picture?

Thanks,
Jim
