Just about any operating system with UDP/IP support can connect to
a Linux server, and that includes Linux.  Most people start on such
a project with some further constraints in mind, such as what operating
system is appropriate to the job and what hardware can handle the load.
I don't think you have given us enough information to be much help.
The term "Linux server" does not say much about how much load must
be handled by the machine running Ada, since Linux can run on small
Intel boxes and on giant IBM mainframes, and a lot of stuff in between.

So tell us more, but realize that our favorite programming language
is capitalized "Ada".  There are contexts in which it actually might
be confused with the American Dental Association, the Americans for
Democratic Action, the Americans with Disabilities Act, etc., and
proper capitcalization helps sort it out.

Also be prepared for everybody to tell you their own favorite operating
system for use with Ada.  Think of it as proof that you have a lot of
choices.  Mine is VMS :-)
