Chris, it is quite easy to make tcp services survive snapshots in 
Squeak.  ComancheNG (and maybe Comanche) do this quite nicely.  If you 
design the protocol carefully, you could even make connections survive 
(if your connection is independent of any underlying physical socket 
connection).  I would probably have the connections terminate, but keep 
the actual service available across snapshots.
