we've implemented combined netatalk/samba servers at several clients as
wellas for internal use. i'm happy to put you in contact with one of my
sysadmins to see if we can help you out. i do know that if a pc touches a
file, the finder info is lost and the file has to be opened with the open
dialog box in an app. we keep a utility called 'filetyper' around for a
quick fix when needed.
