* minimum hardware requirement 1 server (running OpenSER or Asterisk or
(the older) OpenH323 GK)
* for clients, you'd need either a IPPhone, or a PC with a sound card
running a softphone (software ip phone, which may support the following:
H323, SIP (most common), IAX, MGCP, etc.)

yes, but you'd be setting it up as a peer-peer, which means user's would
need to dial the phone's ip address. better to use a server which will
act as a gateway/router/register (depending on which protocol you'll
use, I'd recommend SIP).
