The following works on my freshly installed OS9, and I can mount remote 
volumes with it. It uses the "Standard Additions" in the scripting 
additions folder in the system folder, but I don't know since which sys 
version these Standard Additions were present. It's not present in 8.0.
I tested it opening a volume on a regular Mac server, also OS9. I don't 
know whether it would talk to NT, if your NT machine shows up in the 
Chooser it will probably work.

YMMV, but I hope it helps.
best,
erik
