This should present no problem.

There are two components of Slony-I that connect to databases:
~ - slonik, the configuration tool, and
~ - slon, the replication daemon

Both simply use libpq to connect to PostgreSQL instances:

[postgres at marge bin]$ ldd slon
	libpq.so.3 => /opt/OXRS/dbs/pgsql742-2004-06-17/lib/libpq.so.3 (0xb75d4000)
	libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0xb75bb000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0xb7483000)
	libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0xb7456000)
	libresolv.so.2 => /lib/libresolv.so.2 (0xb7444000)
	libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0xb742f000)
	/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb75eb000)
[postgres at marge bin]$ ldd slonik
	libpq.so.3 => /opt/OXRS/dbs/pgsql742-2004-06-17/lib/libpq.so.3 (0xb75d4000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0xb7493000)
	libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0xb7466000)
	libresolv.so.2 => /lib/libresolv.so.2 (0xb7454000)
	libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0xb743f000)
	libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/libpthread.so.0 (0xb742f000)
	/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb75eb000)

They do not use any special protocols.

You'll have a slon for each replication node; the slon instances do not
communicate via any special protocol; they do all of their communication
~ by leaving messages/events in the database instances, so all that is
needed is ordinary database connections via libpq.
