    This will work fine as per your specifications...
    And there is no difference in slurp and yahoo!slurp..both do the same job..

    Using this robots.txt you disallow all crawler to crawl your site.

    ------------------------------------------------------
    User-agent:slurp
    dissallow:

    By this 2 line code you allow yahoo bot to crawl all your site and disallow nothing.
    --------------------------------------------------
    User-agent:googlebot
    dissallow:

    By this 2 line code you allow google bot to crawl all your site and disallow nothing.
    -------------------------------------------------------
    User-agent:*
    dissallow:/

    User-agent:* mean all search engine crawler and
    And this dissallow:/ will disallow your entire website.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    Remove that dissallow:/ code other wise none of search engine crawler crawl your site.
