Hi tmoran,
    I had this problem myself as I wanted a separate interface for sockets
so I made a package for sending and listening to sockets where the user has
to specify where the messages are going. The interface consists of two tasks
and can send and receive types.
   I would have appreciated an inbuilt option though. I did have a play with
the examples given in the adasockets package on linux with the Gnat Compiler
and it worked ok, havn't used it actually on the interenet though, but I
have used internet sockets between two machines,

I would be very interested to hear of anyones success in connecting ada
sockets to programs such as Java. Anyone done this, please talk to me

Is there a substantial case for me writing a generic version....of this
package
and release it as opensource...........
