There is a '...socket' group which covers this in depth. I'm also
the beginner in this field and I think you can first read some
topics that can be of some interest. I asked many basic questions
in last few weeks which you can check. Remy helped me a lot.

TClientSocket & TServerSocket are the components you can
use for that. There is also Indy which is open source...

You know what services are, aren't you ? You need just to
embed your client/server components into service app...
