Check all your control panels and indicate that relevant networking protocols are to use ethernet.
Oh really? That's odd. The machine has 36MB of RAM and is running MacOS 8.1 but as far as I could tell there was no sign it knew it had Ethernet. I'll try again! Thanks for the tip!
It depends on how the software was installed on the HD. If it was installed on the computer in question and it was a normal install it should have installed the LC driver. If the drive was moved from a machine without an LC slot then it would only have the driver if a full install was done or that driver was specifically selected to be installed. If a minimum install was done it may not have had the driver installed.
IIRC there should be a driver in the Extensions folder called "Ethernet LC" or something similar. If it's not there then you could use Tome Viewer to add it from the installer disk(s).
