on a Macbook with OSX Yosemite (which prints de_DE.UTF-8 as value of $LANG in Terminal) and VmWare Fusion 7 I have installed CentOS 6.6 minimal.
When I ssh to my new VM as root, the $LANG is de_DE.UTF-8 too.
So where does the change to de_DE happen and what is the best spot in
ssh is setting it, based on your terminal settings.
In /etc/ssh/sshd_config you'll see a lines starting with "AcceptEnv" - one of the settings will be LANG. This tells the ssh daemon to accept the LANG value sent by the client. A standard ssh client (/etc/ssh/ssh_config) has "SendEnv" settings, and LANG is one of those...
So you can do various things: 1) Stop sshd from accepting LANG (edit sshd_config, restart) 2) Stop ssh client from sending LANG 3) Modify .profile
