Setting Up File Share on a Mac

A simple tutorial on how to set up file sharing on a Mac.
In the video I'm running Mac OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3.
I used Quicktime Player to record my screen, if you're wondering.

To set up file sharing, navigate to system preferences, then sharing.
Check the file sharing check box.
Add files to be shared.
Set permissions for computers that you want to be able to access the
shared folder.

@MythoBot Under file sharing, click the other mac in the users list, and change the Read & Write to read only or write only
