It's worse than that. AppleTalk over Ethernet, which is available under OS X 10.3 and 10.2 if you root around in networking prefs to enable it, is only backwards-compatible with the AppleTalk of relatively recent classic operating systems. You cannot, for example, mount a MacOS 10.3 AppleTalk share on your System 6 Desktop, and I think this is true of System 7 and early MacOS 8 as well. (MacOS 8.6 can mount and be mounted by AppleTalk-on-OSX without having to be AppleShare-on-TCP-IP; likewise with MacOS 9).
Dunno exactly where the cutoff point is, but I don't think a Mac SE/30 will have any overlap with Jaguar or Panther OS X for AppleTalk file sharing, i.e., the newest OS the SE/30 will run is too old to mount or be mounted by any flavor of OS X.
