To change the default locale of a machine, you need to set environment variables in the /etc/default/init file. See http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-0677/6m758jcqf?a=view for an example of how it is done. If the LC_* variables are not set in this file, then the default locale is the ‘C’ locale. To reboot the system from the ssh shell, as root, simply type ‘reboot’.
