How do you keep the bathroom sink from leaking from the bottom when hooking up a portable washer to it?

(Question moved from Introductions to more appropriate topic area in order to get the most exposure to those best able to answer the question. Introductions is for people to introduce themselves and we try to not ask questions in that area. Thank you!)

Some questions first. The bottom of what? The lavatory connection to the pop-up waste? The trap connection? And what about this?

Do you just drain it over the lavatory rim or have you replaced the tailpiece with a branch tailpiece, (see image) and connectede to that? In short, you have gave us nothing to work with. We need more details before we can help. Cheers, Tom
