Linux character set cannot display chinese characters

627138Apr 16 2008 — edited Apr 17 2008
hi all
I have an oracle9i 9.2.0.4 database running on a RadHat linux AS4 based system.
I accepted the default character set setting WE8ISO8859P1 when installing.
Now i find that it seems that the chinese characters cannot be properly displayed.
I heard that it should use ZHS16GBK as the database character set.
I dont want to reinstalle the database just for changeing the character set.
Are there other ways around to solve this problem.

I am in urgent help!!!!
Thank u very much!!!
