You can't. One socket per connection. Have your client make multiple sockets if you want to connect to multiple servers - you could then either multiplex these using an nio Selector, or use a thread-per-connection model to marshal data messages to a client controller.

Here's a good intro to network programming (most of the concepts carry over directly to Java): Beej's Guide to Network Programming
