The AppleDouble file format specifies more than just a resource
fork. In fact, there might not be any resource fork at all in the ._
file. Other contents can include FinderInfo, Access Control Lists
(ACLs), and Extended Attributes (EAs). In Tiger, I believe ._ files
will be more prevalent due to ACLs and EAs, especially on network
filesystems.

The customer is doing a "ditto -rsrc" from a local volume to one

This is expected if "your" volume isn't fork-aware. If "your" volume
indeed isn't capable of storing forks, anything else would be a bug.
We are fork aware. Our volume work fine with the Finder and all other
applications,
