I would like to run a small server for several friends. the problem
that I am having is that my friend has several clients behind a router
and only one of them can connect at a time. I know that on the internet
there are servers that you would beable to connect several clients
sharing an internet connection and would like to know how.

You gotta go into the router and forward your q2 port(s).

I've done that and even setting the server in the DMZ to no avail. I'm
attempting to run a dedicated server and I would imagine that there is
a setting that would allow this to happen. (especially since Q2 is
famous for having a security hole in allowing multiple connections from
the same IP!!!!) is there anything that your aware of?

god doesn't bless you with answers unless you know how to manipulate search 
API like your hand.

Speaking of "tards", did you even realize you're replying to posts from
almost 11 MONTHS ago?  Do you think the original poster is still waiting
for an answer?

Tard, indeed.
