If you want the whole website to come up in Vietnamese, then you can add
cgiarg shortname=l argdefault=vi
into etc/main.cfg file in the Greenstone home directory.

However, if you want it on a per collection
basis, then it is more complicated, please see
the ongoing discussion between Katherine Don and Gloria Toro on this list.
