I can't tell, I don't want to buy a wireless slave flash system without knowing whether my portable flash has the socket for the receiver, because I'm cheap and the one I plan to buy (on ebay) doesn't include a hot shoe adapter for the flash.
Also, if I was told right, I only need to hook up the receiver to one flash, and the other fires automatically? And, if my SLR digital camera is set to flash off (to turn off my built in flash) will the other flashes fire?

Yes, it accepts a Vivitar PC synch cord.
Are you positive this flash is compatible with your camera? If it isn't you could damage your DSLR.
If your DSLR supports TTL (aka Off-Film/Sensor Flash Metering) you'll be happier with a flash that utilizes this feature. IMO you should buy the top of the line flash offered by the maker of your camera for your camera.
Your best source of information about using slave flashes is your local real camera store. They can also tell you which after-market flash units are compatible with your camera if you choose to not go with the one suggested by your camera maker.
