Thanks guys for your help with this. In the end I've switched the Slimserver back to my WindowsXP machine and I've got it working again.
I'm not sure why I couldn't get it to run on my Mac Mini. I have 512MB memory installed and didn't have the firewall switched on. But anyway - at least it is running again now and probably makes more sense on my WinXP machine as it has 1GB of memory and a 3.0 GHz processor.
