The first thing you probably don't have is the list server patch.

Secondly you cannot "make" multiplayer games with Controller 4. The program is used to edit the already open games. If you downloaded Controller 4 form this website (Jazz 2 Online) there should be a nice readme included. But if you are lazy not to read it then it's not my fault for not knowing how to use the program.

And lastly you can HOST multiplayer games by doing the following:
Run Jazz Jackrabbit 2
Select New game => Party Mode => Internet Play => Start a new name => (specify server detail) + Done => (number of players usually) 1 => (configure yourself) + Start Game

Next time try specifying more details so we can know what EXACTLY is your problem.

It's right here:
http://squeeky.cytag.nl/~haze/?cat=files&dir=files/pc/patches

BTW Which version of jj2 do you have? if you have 1.23 or 1.24 (The secret files) then it's ok. If you have below 1.23 then you'll also need to update to 1.23. You can find the patch on the same link I gave you.
