Hi,
I've been setting up a networked printer in a 100% Linux LAN, and there's only one small problem left: how do I localize the CUPS interface (e. g. the pages I see when opening http://localhost:631 in a browser)?
My system is localized in french. LANG is fr_FR.UTF-8 in /etc/sysconfig/i18n. And I checked Firefox: it's supposed to open web content in French.
Curiously, I had done similar installs before with Slackware 12, and there, the CUPS interface displayed in french "out of the box", e. g. without specifying it in cupsd.conf. Now IIRC, I had explicitly set a whole bunch of environment variables on my Slackware install (LC_MESSAGES and the likes) to french. 1) Could it be that? 2) Which variable would that be, and where do I set these in CentOS? Slackware's localization variables are all meant to be set in /etc/profile.d/lang.sh. Where is the orthodox place to do that in CentOS?
cheers,

don't know the exact place for the language change, but Try setting the language from login screen or using system-config-language if available.
