I know this is 6 months late, but in case someone gets this while 
searching the mailing list.

 From the FAQ:
Also, to make sure that file names with 8-bit characters are correctly 
transferred by smbclient you should add this to samba's smb.conf file 
for samba 2.x:

     [global]
         # Accept the windows charset
         client code page = 850
         character set = ISO8859-1

For samba 3.x this should instead be:

     [global]
         unix charset = ISO8859-1

This setting should work for western europe. See 
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch08_03.html for more 
information about settings for other languages.
