Can you access it with smbclient? I haven't checked but it could be that
smbmount ignores the "character set/client code page" settings even for
mounting.

After mounting everything is done by smbfs, and that relies on the kernel
nls code to translate characters when doing 'ls' and such. For that you
need to set the iocharset/codepage options to smbmount (see the manpage).
