Description

Hi,

Filenames containing Norwegian, Spanish, French, and German Characters not allowed over SFTP in Tectia client, names are getting messed up

How can I override the decoding charset in SshServer :

DecodingCharset is present for SftpClient:

client.setNameDecodingCharset(Charset.forName("ISO-8859-8"));

by default it uses UTF-8

The SftpClient exposes a get/setNameDecodingCharset method which enables the user to modify the charset - even while the SFTP session is in progress 

After the file is uploaded the Norwegian characters in the filename are replaced with non-readable characters.

Can we configure the SshServer to override the decoding charset from the default UTF-8? Is there any API to set the SFTP CharsetEncoding (Set the default encoding for filenames in SFTP sessions)
