Ah, try disconnecting the ethernet cable and then booting the 
computer.  My guess is that the ethernet settings will be identical, 
indicating the Mac Ethernet port is NOT working.   FWIW, my working 
OS 9.1 install on my 9600 includes the following:

Apple Enet
Apple Enet DLPI Support
EnetShimLib

If those file are present, I'd start to suspect a hardware problem. 
I hate to go straight there, but it sounds like you have the 
software/setup bases covered.  I don't think trying an AAUI adapter 
would be worth it, because it uses the same hardware as the built-in 
ethernet port.   Best fall-back would be a PCI ethernet adapter card.
