Please allow me to jump in and ask a question.
I am trying to do the same thing and it worked once but won't work now.
File sharing is on, local talk is on, both Macs are running through
the same router.
I have Panther on a PowerBook G4 and 8.6 on the Performa. Where am I
going wrong?
Before I go completely nutz.

I do not need to connect to the Internet. Just share files between
the PB and the 630. The PB is running 10.4.3. The Beige is running
10.4.3 using xPostFacto. The iMac G5 is running 10.4.3. The 630 is
running 8.1
The simple answer used to be to activate AppleTalk on both machines,
enable file sharing on the Quadra, and connect to the Quadra from the
OS X machine (which is what I do with my Performa 630CD running 8.1
and iBook running Jaguar). HOWEVER, I believe I read that Tiger
eliminated AppleTalk as a connection option--I'm not sure. See if you
can find "Make AppleTalk active" as an option under the Ethernet
settings in your Network control pane on the OS X machine. If so,
you're in luck. Otherwise, I think you have to go through TCPIP, but
I'm not sure of the details. Can anyone else lend us a figurative
hand?
Good luck!
