Hi,

It would be helpful if you could attached your /etc/resolv.conf,
/etc/hosts, and /etc/ifconfig.ae0 files.  In the mean time, can you ping
your own machines interface.  For example, can you ping 192.168.0.3 on
your SE/30?  Also, just for fun, try using Fetch or something from your
Centris to your SE.  I have seen times where I cannot ping my MacOS
machine, but it will connect via FTP or telnet.
