The sync server is indeed single user. If you want to distribute a set of cards to many students, export these cards to a '*.cards" file and then have each student import this file into his or her copy of Mnemosyne.
Collaborative creating/editing of cards is not supported, though, although if you distribute a new version of the *.cards file, e.g. with typo fixes or new cards, students can import it and it will apply the changes without overwriting their progress.
