Update: as of Nov 10, 2008 this is no longer possible in the demo. Shortly after the full version came out and the demo was discontinued, so this is meaningless now anyway. But at the time it was epic fun seeing a taste of playing as infected before you were supposed to.
Started server.
Waited for an unsuspecting lobby team to join.
Connected before their 4th person can join.
Switched to infected.
Spawned a tank.
Hilarity.
Only 2 people were on so it wasnt as fun, but still ok.
Here is how to play as infected in the demo, and as you can see from this video, it works fine in multiplayer on a dedicated server.
Then as a bonus clip, with a completely different team, spamming "z_spawn witch" in the spawn, total wipe in record time.
Here is a link to a forum post on the steam forums showing how to do all of this
