I have been trying for a few weeks now to sucessfully network my SE to the rest of the home network. I don't really need it to access the internet, but I would like it to be able to transfer files.
If your home network includes other Macs running System 9 or earlier, it
will be much easier to transfer files using AppleShare. With System 6,
AppleShare may not be installed by default. Add it by doing a System 6
custom install. I assume you have the SE ethernet card installed. It came
with a driver, and you must run the driver installer which modifies your
System file. Connect the ethernet cable. Go to Network in Control Panels.
Select the ethernet or ethertalk icon. On your other Mac, set AppleTalk
to ethernet, turn on file sharing, and share a volume that is 2G or
smaller in size. Back to the SE, go to Chooser, select AppleShare, and
the other computer should show up.
For connecting a system 6 mac with an system 9 mac you need to install on the system 6 machine: Network Software installer 1.4.4 or 1.4.5 (AppleTalk (58.1.4), and then install AppleShare for Workstations 3.5 (works best with multifinder turned on).
Lower versions of the networking and appleshare software are less compatible with system 9.x.
