Do you have Ethernet selected in the Appletalk Control Panel on both computers? Daft question maybe? Are you using a direct cable (it needs to be x-over if it is) or a hub? Try turning Appletalk off on both machines, restart them, then turn Appletalk on again on both, I used to have to do this occasionally when connecting PMac to G3, now I have G3 to iMac I've not had to do it ... maybe just a quirk?
