Python's id of an object 'id(obj)' won't help you at all.  There
is no mechanism for reinstantiating an object by its serialized
id.  You probably should look for CORBA-Orbs such as Fnorb or
OmniORB.  Or maybe the Zope Object DataBase (ZODB) would fit
your needs.  

A bit more context might help us to help you <wink>.
