I think the config file should be to slon config file not a slon_tools.conf

ie the format is

cluster_name=myrep
pid_file='/opt/PostgreSQL/9.1/data/master_slon.pid'
conn_info='host=localhost dbname=master user=postgres port=5432'

http://www.slony.info/documentation/2.2/runtime-config.html

Or see  slon_node.conf.sample which I think is included with the perl tools
