This is usually the result of a mismatch between the character set
used by your ssh client and the locale settings of your session.
Here's a link that discusses:
http://help.lockergnome.com/linux/high-ascii-characters-linux-terminal-ssh-ftopict487060.html
[u...@host ~]$ echo $LANG
en_US.UTF-8 <--make sure your SSH client character set matches this
value
Generally, I have found on Redhat and Suse that they now use the above
by default and that setting my SSH client to use UTF-8 fixes this
issue.
