Thank you maze. Tru gave me the answer. We should put those mount options 
for it to work with CentoOS 4:
mount -t vfat -o utf8  /dev/hdb1 /samba_backups

I have tried and it seems to work well. I did not try to mount an already 
written FAT32 disk and look for the result but that's my next step..

Daniel
