I think the application that he is looking for is called "camserv"....
This is a free OSS package that can be found at freshmeat.net. You don't
need to install the un-OSS Real Networks software to accomplish this. This
works with Netscape but not with IE I believe though. If you wanted to go
all out, do a search on this list and you will find information that was
submitted by Justin Schoeman. He gave information on howto stream MP1E data.
This route will give you video as well as audio.
Thanks,
Steve

I would look at streaming realvideo, realproducer can encode from a V4L
source in realtime on a reasonable machine and you can download it free.
So far as streaming the content goes I don't know - never done that but
I'm sure that there must be free solutions to that too - or maybe Real
would be generous seeing as it is such a good cause.
