When I use CyberDuck to connect to my file server, I can have a list of files/folders with names containing unicode characters (greek in particular), but if I try to download a file or list the contents of such a folder, I get a "no such file or folder".

Try to change the character encoding used. See 'View' → 'Text Encoding'. Try UTF-8 (the default), ISO-8859-1 and Windows-1252. Refer to http://cyberduck.ch/help/en/problems/index.html

I have traced down the problem furher. The problem seems to be relevant to accented Greek characters, such as ά, έ, ή ΐ, ϊ, etc.. I write this again, it is not a display problem of these filenames, the names are properly displayed. BUT if Cyberduck tries to download a file or folder which has a filename containing accented Greek characters, it returns a "no such file or directory" error. The same error is returned when trying to view the contents of a folder with a folder name with accented greek characters.

Could you try running

defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck path.normalize.unicode false

in a Terminal.app window and restart Cyberduck.

It works with those settings.

In 49d30b4 unicode normalization is off by default which preserves the Unicode normalization used on the server.
