not enough info, then I guess:

- you are using 8.1 kernel
- you are using a local NLS for samba (where local mean anything that
  is not English), the \204 suggest that it is a problem with charsets
  that require more than 1 byte for encoding.

The good news are that the kernel for 8.2 update (or any cooker
kernel), should have fixed that.

Later, Juan.
