I finally got an external HD and backed up my iMac using Time Machine. I did this because I did a clean install of snow leopard.

I also want to back up my macbook prior to installing SL on there. However, I was informed that I can back up my Macbook through iMac using File Sharing. This will be better since I won't have to disconnect the exernal HD everytime I want to back up my macbook.

Can someone take me step by step on how to do this?
