If I understand correctly:

... you are using 10.2 Operating system on your MacBook Pro, and you want to set up file-sharing between that, and an iMac.

Sorry I am no expert: Apple has Online User Guides you might need to consult for your specific set-ups.

Apple's File Sharing instructions (link below: is for more recent Operating Systems, so, is not specific to your computers:

(You need to "select version" at the top ... perhaps the iMac version is listed?)

Hope there's something you can use for taking a step towards your goal..
