Dear both I had the same problem. My SlimServer did not autostart once the system boots. It had nothing to do with the firewall, as it had all the permissions - at least nothing that was eluding to it - but I am by no means an expert - and yes I added Perl and all the other applications to my exception list for the fire wall as described above. However what did th job for me is an apple shell script I wrote to check and restart the server if it is not running. I added it to the login-accounts on my computer. Since then - i's running smoothly.
