Given a troublesome filename (let's call it
/mp3/troubleXsome where X stands for the troublesome
character in question) you could first allow your
shell to help you capture it in a file, thus:
echo /mp3/troubl* >/tmp/searchNdestroy
...which with judicious editing could then be
transformed into a bash script containing the
necessary commands to, say, delete or rename all
such troublesome files, and all without ever having
to figure out how to type the troublesome character
at the keyboard.
Of course, this is not addressing the real problem
which (from your description) sounds like a fairly
nasty Samba bug. Good luck.
