SED, match a line block

Hello,
I want to do a simple substitution using sed but I can't find a solution. Basically, from a Apache conf file, I would like to remove everything included between the <VirtualHost> and </VirtualHost> e.g
Code:
SSLMutex  file:/var/run/ssl_mutex
<VirtualHost _default_:443>
# A lot of config that I don't want
<VirtualHost>
#another config

So the result I want is everything withtout the VirtualHost part:
Code:
SSLMutex  file:/var/run/ssl_mutex
#another config

I tried:
Code:
gsed -e "s#<VirtualHost.*</VirtualHost>##g" /tmp/test

but it does not match the line block Smilie

Any ideas ?

R.
