[SOLVED] german Umlaute (äöüÄÖÜß) are broken after uploading

Hi,

I've a problem. If I upload files with german Umlaut (äöüÄÖÜß) in the filename via sftp to server,
they got broken, for example: ü -> ü
If I login in to server the look broken, if I download the file via apache they are broken.
If I look with FileZilla, they look good.
I think something must be wrong at the character encoding during the transfer.

Any ideas?

greetings
Carsten

Fixed the problem, it's not the fault of Filezilla

1. putty preferences - Windows - Translation - UTF-8
2. .htaccess
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
IndexOptions Charset=UTF-8
