error MIDL2025 : syntax error : expecting a type specification near "SOCKET"

This means that the MIDL compiler cannot recognize "SOCKET". Actually when you look at the declaration of SOCKET in WINSOCK.H, it is declared this way

typedef unsigned int    u_int;
typedef u_int           SOCKET;

So in this way, SOCKET is just a C 32 bit unsigned int. So you will do is just change your declaration to long

AcceptConnections(long sock);

Hope it will help you
