[問]How to force Debian 3.1's mySQL 4.1 using utf8-general-ci charset for all table and databse

Hi all,

after install the mysql 4.1 on Debian 3.1, later I donwloaded the SMF (SimpleMachine.org) forum and success installed it ...

But when I using phpmyadmin login to mysql localhost ..., see all table are using MyISAM and the charset are all lanti

I want to force mysql all using utf8_general_ci, since my forum and all other application base on myssql are for Chinese ... utf8 for me is useful!

Can anyone teach me how to build a database and table that all support utf8_general_ci

thx

Best Regards,
