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.

I am currently running OS 10.3.9 and communicating regularly, using AppleTalk over Ethernet, with an SE/30 running OS 7.5.3. I do make the connections using a command line script that uses mount_afp afp://AT/Saturn/Dione with a preestablished mount point directory in /Volumes. That was necessary in Jaguar but I think Finder can do it in Panther. It works not in Tiger.

Open Door does offer Shareway which can be installed at the OS 7 level to allow connection using IP over Ethernet but the cost is more than the SE/30 is worth.

As a webserver the SE/30 will be using IP anyway and that's OK in Tiger and a lot of other places.

My SE/30 "server" sits on a Mac II case with no motherboard. Inside there are four SCSI disks which use the MacII power supply and tie to the external SCSI port on the SE/30. NetPresenz allows Linux and peecees to put stuff up there for me. I backed out of Tiger because I like things the way they are. If AAPL wasn't doing so well I would be more pissed at Steve.
