samba - Jan 2004 - Rsync with smbfs filesystem and characters like é - updated from version on RSync List

Hello,
 
I?m using samba version 3.0.1-Debian
rsync version 2.6.0 protocol version 27
And mount version 2.12
With kernel 2.4.22
 
As far as in aware these are the latest versions in Debian unstable.
 
The problem im having is when mirroring my mp3 collection file names
with characters like ? ? ? etc. are not displayed in the linux
filesystem and then when browsing to the directory through samba using a
windows machine they are displayed as ?? ? for example ?02 R?yksopp -
Eple.mp3?.
 
Originally they would be displayed as ?02 R????????????????? on the
windows machine until I added ?dos charset = CP850? and ?unix charset
ISO8859-16? to the smb.conf file.
 
This problem only occours when using the linux machine to copy from the
windows machine to the linux machine. If the windows machine ?uploads?
to the linux machine everything works fine and filenames appear correct
on both the windows and linux machines. Unix charset ISO8859-1 didn?t
work as well for me, as in the filenames were not written correctly on
the linux machine when doing an upload but appeared fine when using the
windows machine to browse the directory through samba.
 
Any help in resolving this problem would be much appreciated.
 
The script I use for the mirroring operation is as follows:

Thanks in advance.
