To test this, do i just need to set the remote language to french? Or does the 
local
language need to be french also?

I'm not sure to correctly understand your question,
on the server French is set for "my menu and windows" and "for everyone at 
startup" (see file attached) 
Did you mean I can set the language for remote connection somewhere else?

That answers my question perfectly, thanks. I'll try and reproduce this.

patched (and reinstalled) to rev.24 and still the same problem, do I need to do
something else?

Oh. Hum. Can you tell me the output of 'locale' in a terminal on the server 
please? Preferably both inside and outside of NX. Thanks,

Steve

Ok, I also tried with the rev27
this is inside NX
$ locale
LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_PAPER="C"
LC_NAME="C"
LC_ADDRESS="C"
LC_TELEPHONE="C"
LC_MEASUREMENT="C"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="C"
LC_ALL=C

this is outside of NX
$ locale
LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

cheers!

I'm back on this issue :)
Something I forgot to say is:
-If my first connection was outside NX, folders in the home are created in 
french
language (like Bureau, Image..)
-But next connections inside NX, ask me to create new home folders in english 
(see
file attached)

NeatX should export the vars defined at /etc/environment, /etc/profile and 
probably
others.

I think it does : no matter with my http_proxy and others vars.
I found a LANGUAGE in neatx/configure set to "C" and try to changed it, but 
nothing changed! (Grrrr :)

So, the problem is that lib/auth.py sets LC_ALL=C, so that the password prompt 
from
su/ssh is predictable. Unfortunately, this means that the /system lang 
preference/ is
being overwritten. As for your desktop lang preference, that is stored in 
~/.dmrc. In
order to honour that setting, we need to parse that config file before we start 
the
session (gnome/xfce/whatever). I'm currently trying to figure out the simplest 
and
most robust way of doing that, and checking to make sure we cover all the 
possibilities.

I noticed the "LC_ALL=C" in some of your files and try to change it by 
FR_fr.UTF-8 but that was wrong... I also 
tried to set LANGUAGE=Fr_fr:fr in my /etc/env but nothing better...
I event though a .dmrc with
[Desktop]
Session=gnome
Language=fr_FR.UTF-8
would be nice... nothing working, I'm gonna be crazy 8) 
Hopefully you seem to know how to make it working :)

Ok, i'm attaching a patch which i think should fix this. It'll need a bit of 
tidying
up before it can go into the source tree, but if you can test it out, that 
would be
great. Thanks,

Steve

I install latest checkout and reproduce this problem with Russian language in 
Fedora 14. 

Inside NX:
$ locale
LANG=C
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_PAPER="C"
LC_NAME="C"
LC_ADDRESS="C"
LC_TELEPHONE="C"
LC_MEASUREMENT="C"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="C"
LC_ALL=

Outside NX:
$ locale
LANG=ru_RU.utf8
LC_CTYPE="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_TIME="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_COLLATE="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_MONETARY="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_PAPER="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_NAME="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="ru_RU.utf8"
LC_ALL=

How fix it? Change language settings in NX session on "Russian - Russian" 
without effect :(

This fix assumes that locale settings are provided in ~/.dmrc. However, (at 
least) on Fedora/RHEL based installations defaults are configured in 
/etc/sysconfig/i18n and in order to take those, LANG or LC_* variables should 
not be set at all. I propose to include the attached patch.
