Two things:

* The most common cause of system components, like the firewall, 'forgetting' about your program is that your program is not code signed.  This means that the system can't determine that build X+1 of your app is the same as build X.  Make sure your code signed, in this case with Developer ID.

* Is your code listening for incoming connections?  Or do you have the socket listed in your launchd property list?  The latter is highly preferred.

Share and Enjoy
