Some info here:

The likely problem is the fact that 10.4 has dropped support for 
filesharing over an AppleTalk network. It still supports AppleTalk for 
browsing the network, but the actual filesharing only works over TCP/IP.

Mac OS 9 works with either AppleTalk or TCP/IP, but by default TCP/IP is 
turned off for file serving. Open the File Sharing control panel and 
make sure the option "enable file sharing clients to connect over TCP/
IP" is turned on.
