On my web page, I have some sample code that uses sockets under WinNT. Go to http://www.mcondic.com/ and look for "Ada Programming" and you'll find it. I don't consider it to be a bulletproof subsystem, but it will at least illustrate how you get there from Ada. Note that this is dependent on GNAT - or at least presumes that your Ada compiler provides the package Win32.Winsock as part of the distribution. (Also, you'll need the linker directives either as a pragma or at the command line if you are using GNAT.) If you have that package available you should be able to make very similar calls to Windows as you would to Unix to use sockets. Hope this helps.
