How do you mount this and how did you configure smbfs?
Two likely causes:
1. You did not enable nls in the kernel and/or specify the correct
codepage in the mount command. See the smbmount manpage.
2. The server is mapping Ó into O because it thinks that is the best thing
to do. You should verify with a network snooping tool (ethereal) that
the server is sending the char as Ó.
There is a known problem with windows machines mapping a char into
something and then not understanding the request when the same char is
sent back.
Patches to add unicode support helps (but for Ó you shouldn't need them ...)
See the 2.4.18 kernel patches on this page:
http://www.hojdpunkten.ac.se/054/samba/index.html
and note that you need to patch samba too.
