13.1.4 Double-Byte Character Restrictions
Š Do not use double-byte characters in directory names and filenames.
Š
Do not use double-byte characters in user passwords. The Change GroupWise Password dialog
box in ConsoleOne currently allows entry of double-byte characters. However, the GroupWise
client login does not allow entry of double-byte characters in passwords, so a user who was
assigned a password with double-byte characters in ConsoleOne cannot type the double-byte
characters when attempting to log in to GroupWise.
13.1.5 WebAccess Attachments with Extended Characters in Filenames
On Windows, Mozilla-based browsers such as Firefox and Netscape do not save extended character
filenames correctly, even though the filename displays correctly in the Save As dialog box. This is a
browser problem, not a GroupWise problem. There is no workaround.
In Safari on Macintosh, extended character filenames are not interpreted correctly. As a workaround,
use Firefox instead of Safari if you receive attachments with extended character filenames. This is a
browser problem, not a GroupWise problem.
