eshell with cd /ssh:server:/somepath

eshell with cd /ssh:server:/somepath

[Kiwon Um]

Hello, I'm using eshell now.
One question is here:
When I use cd /ssh:server:/somepath, the non-English filenames get
broken.
If I do "ls", it shows some numbers like "1213412341234abc.doc: No
such file or directory" for non-English filenames.
With Dired, it's similar. The filenames are shown like ???????abc.doc.
Any advice?

M-x manual-entry RET ls RET

The ls or gls commands prefer Latin script US ASCII file names. With  
some extra options it's able to output a bit more characters. The  
next problem is that these byte sequences need to be "translated"  
into glyphs from some font. GNU Emacs 21, 22, and 23 differ a bit in  
this. Experimenting can bring results.

Some settings could help:

	(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
	;(setq dired-use-ls-dired "/sw/bin/gls --dired")
	(setq insert-directory-program "gls" dired-use-ls-dired t)
	;   (setq dired-use-ls-dired t)
	;   (setq insert-directory-program "gls")
	 '(find-ls-subdir-switches "-alN")

Thanks for your reply.
Then, if I use "ssh" in eshell, all is fine. Only the "cd /ssh:..."
has the problem. Unfortunately, your help didn't work for me. What
would be the problem?
