The Florist package from Florida State University implements POSIX
standard sockets for Ada.  However, unless you've won the lottery, or
have a boss who's willing to fork over cash for documentation (POSIX
standards documents are expensive), you'll need to study the source
files to understand how to use it, and even then, there'll be stuff
you just have to discover for yourself by trying it.

Others have already mentioned the AdaSockets package.

The third option is to use `Interfaces.C' to use your OS's native
sockets library.
