You should be able to do this with GnomeMeeting. Here are a list of its features: http://www.gnomemeeting.org/index.php?rub=2 You can also do DCC Voice over irc. Granted most of the time you will be connecting to an irc network on the Internet, DCC is a peer to peer protocol. Kvirc supports DCC Voice: http://www.kvirc.net/ > I feel that ICQ and just about any other instant-messaging service work the > same way. I think it would be more efficient if you could just go peer to > peer with this rather than through a communications server. You could always run your own IM or IRC server. I know there are lots of them out there. Your best bet would probably be to run a Jabber server. Try searching http://freshmeat.net/ for more on this.
