os x to 2000 to os 9

We are in the middle of rolling out os x. Our creative server used to be NT 4.0. If they dropped lets say a jpg from an os x to the nt 4 server, it would open fine on a os 9 box. Now our creative server is a 2000 box connected to a SAN. If a os 9 drops a jpg on thte 200 box, another os 9 opens it fine. If a os x box drops a jpg on the 2000 box another os x can open it fine. Now the problem. If a os x box drops a jpg on my 2000 box, and a os 9 trys to open it, it asks what app to use to open this file...

OS X quit using type and creator codes, so the OS 9 box doesn't know that the file is a JPEG or what application to open it with.
