I have a post from a user that says awaiting moderation, I can't find out how to approve it. I have you admin tool plugin and it says there are no post awaiting moderation. I've looked at your faq guide and I'm not seeing the same options for approving a post. I realized I had my forum set on the wrong permissions thats how the waiting moderation started in the first place but now I need to clear it out.

Assuming you are a forum Admin then I am nit sure I can explain why it does not show up in the Admins postbag - unless you installed that after the post in question was made in which case it would show.
Simply replying to the post should take it out of moderation - i.e, assumption that if you answer then it is moderated. The forum tools should have an 'approve' menu option you can use but you seem to be saying that is not working - also odd.
When you look at this post in a topic do you see the content?

When I'm logged in I see the post but it says awaiting moderation above it. I have already replied to it as well. When I'm logged out I can not see the post. Is there a database value I can go in and change to shut off the moderation for this post?

Yes, indeed there is. But it would be nice to be able to resolve the issue why this is happening. There are no other reports of these sort of moderation issues nor can we replicate this condition.
The table in your database is called 'wp_sfposts' (swap the 'wp_' for your own table prefix of course) and the column is called 'post_status'. Posts awaiting moderation gave this column set to a value of 1. It needs changing to a zero.
