That script will source the file /etc/sysconfig/slony1  so if you add 
things into /etc/sysconfig/slony1 it will get added to the environment 
of the init script.

It also passes the argument to slon when it starts slon.

SLONCONF=/etc/slon.conf

You can set the slon parameters in that slon.conf file

See http://www.slony.info/documentation/2.1/runtime-config.html for the 
format of the conf file.
