end tell
tell application "Finder"
set creator type of alias local_filepath to "aaaa"
set file type of alias local_filepath to "bbbb"
end tell

I'm not absolutely sure, but I think that files that were not saved on
the server as encoded versions of Mac files (".bin", ".hqx", ".sit")
will not have type and creator codes.
