I found this message in the archives:
http://www.umich.edu/~rsug/netatalk/archive/admins/1999/1890.html
It is dated several years ago so I don't know if it is still applicable.

It speaks of an option that one specifies when mounting the HFS volume to
enable netatalk to recognize the resource forks. I cannot find this
option documented in mount's man page. I have seen syntax variously as
mount -o fork=netatalk
and
mount -o afpd
and do not know which is correct. I have never tried this myself. Surely
someone in this forum knows something about this, though. At least I can
tell you that at one time there was a solution to the problem you are
facing.

good luck,
