HI!
I support an office with netware 3.12 and 4 Win95 Hebrew workstations.
I've added OS/2 name space to support long file names.

The problem:
==========
When using folder names in Hebrew, The users sometimes can't access and
save files in the Hebrew folders.
Renaming the folder to an English name overcomes it.

The questions:
===========
Is there a fix or trick to solve the problem and allow Hebrew folder names?
Can I/Should I change the codepage of the server?
Is saving files with Hebrew file names ok, or should I save files only in
English?

More info:
=======
The server is patched only with 2 patches for Y2K (CLIB & 312Y2K)
I don't remember which Client32 version is installed, probably an old one.

Thanks
