1. Create a new world that you want to use for multiplayer.
2. Host a multiplayer game, choose the world.
3. A new window will open up, this is your "server".
4. Go back to your game (the first window), and go to the multiplayer menu.
5. Click on join LAN game -> your game should be there, join it.
6. DONE!

There are options in the server window like advertise game on the internet, I believe this makes it visible on the server list for people to join.

Hope this helps and I didn't miss anything, I'm sure someone will chime in if I did.
