chinese character support

Hello,

This is my first experience with a non-english character set so please
excuse me if the answers are obvious. We have a Centos 5 box with apache
2.2.3 serving several english websites. We have a request from the
customer to serve up a chinese site with a chinese domain as an alias to an
english domain.

1. How do I configure apache to handle this?
2. Any other gotchas from experience?

Thanks!

Use ServerName with your English domain and ServerAlias with your
Chinese domain using the xn--* format.

Check your default character set and adjust it in that vhost if
required. Your customer will probably want the errordocs in
their preferred language as well.

Good luck,

Pete
