After you seal the concrete (depends on conditions and sealer product) you will typically want to give the sealer 1 day prior to walking on it and 48 hours after application before driving on it. Again depends on type of sealer (ie. epoxy...). concretenetwork.com has a lot of good info as well. Good luck.

It all depends on what the concrete is used for.

How do you fill the hole around the sewer pipe outlet through the concrete wall. It leaks and floods my basement?
The only sure way is to dig down on the outside and seal it from there. Water will tend to push out anything you use on the inside. If it was me, I think I would use some of the expanding foam in a can. If you can get the nozzle between the pipe and the concrete it should seal it. Finish the inside with some concrete patch caulk.
