The font server system under (whatever) is not trashing resource forks.
The client system under OS 9 is not trashing resource forks.
The client system under OS X is running something that is trashing resource forks.
You have to look at everything on the client system that stands between the fontserver system and the client application (Suitcase or FontBook).
* network facing : network settings / file sharing / file transfer
* local filesystem : HFS or HFS+ (not UFS)
* client application : OS X native or Classic ? if OS X native, is it compatible with the OS 9-generated data file(s) ? if Classic, are the Classic network and file settings compatible with the font server ?
There may be other possibilities to check out. Paranoia is good.
