- Any ClearCase Web server to which you connect must use a character
set encoding that is compatible with the character set encoding for which
your client host is configured. If a client and server use incompatible character
set encodings, many ClearCase operations will fail. When you run the ClearCase
Remote Client on a computer that is configured to use a language other than
US English, the Log in dialog
box warns you about this each time you connect to a ClearCase Web server.
To suppress this warning, select Set default to not display incompatible
encodings warning on non-English clients.
