Yes I am running psql on Centos.

My psql client won't accept the German characters whether or not I attempt to 
type them or paste them.

So you are using psql on the Centos machine?

I have the same locale as you, on my Linux machine,  and using Pavels example I
get:

test(5432)aklaver=>create table x(a text); CREATE TABLE 
test(5432)aklaver=>insert into x values('ä,ß,ö'); INSERT 0 1 
test(5432)aklaver=>SELECT * from x ;
   a   
-------
 ä,ß,ö
(1 row)

What happens when you do the above on your machine?
