Hi,

     The problem is caused by the Unicode support introduced in RH8.0.  If 
you look in /etc/sysconfig/i18n, you'll probably find a statement like: 
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
You can copy the file to your home directory as .i18n, note the leading 
dot.  You can then edit the line to read: LANG="en_US"
If you want the original Unix sorting rules found in RH before 7X, say: 
LANG="C"

          HTH.
