From my experience, this sounds like a filename "codepage" issue. I have
been relatively successful in mapping both netatalk and samba filenames to
ISO8859-1. This creates file names that can be reasonably dealt with in all
NetBSD, MacOS and NT/W9x, although some chars unique to the MacOS cannot be
used.

- -----
netatalk: /usr/local/etc/AppleVolumes.default
- ---------
/local/atalk/Foo "Foo" codepage=maccode.iso8859-1 access=@foogrp
samba: /etc/samba/smb.conf
- ------
#Global parameters
character set = ISO8859-1
client code page = 437
[Foo]
create mask = 0770
directory mask = 0770
veto files = /.AppleDouble/.AppleDesktop/Network Trash
Folder/DesktopFolderDB/resource.frk/
mangled names = No
