Not sure what you want your configuration to look like, but if by
"multi-user video conference" you mean a multicast or several unicasts, you
may want to see if a cocktail of ConferenceXP (
http://www.conferencexp.net/) and Xmeeting
(http://xmeeting.sourceforge.net/pages/index.php) may suit you.

The price is certainly right!

<< 'Impossible' is a big word thrown around by small men and women who find
it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power
they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion.
Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential.
Impossible is temporary. Impossible is NOTHING. >> - Muhammad Ali
