Don't do this as root.  The RPM creates a slimserver user and installs
an init script.  As root:

/sbin/service slimserver start

which will start the daemon with the slimserver user.

Also, if you have tried to run slimserver as root, it may have hosed
the ownership of some files it creates.  I suggest you delete the cache
dir, /etc/slimserver.conf and /tmp/slimserver.log before running as
above.
