I am not sure if I am reading this question correctly, but it appears that you are trying to access the mac files on the volume you created from the NT server on which it resides. The purpose behind the "Services for Macintosh" and "AppleTalk" is so that you can access and store files on an NT server from your Mac.

If the NT box is freezing, there are problems with the NT box. If this happens only when trying to add Mac volumes, you should un-install Services For Macintosh (which will also remove the AppleTalk protocol). Re-boot. Re-install Services For Mac (which will also re-install the AppleTalk protocol), then BEFORE rebooting, re-install whatever service pack you are on (hopefully 4 as 6a is buggy as hell!), then re-boot. You can uninstall/reinstall the Services For Mac by right-clicking NetworkNeighborhood on the desktop, select Properties, Services tab, and select Services For Macintosh.
