You could install Samba on the linux box, then mount your music directory
read-only to the Windows machines that need it for use with iTunes.  Then
just tell iTunes that your music library is on the $M drive or whatever.
This is a _bit_ of a pain in the ass since iTunes doesn't add new music
automatically, you must manually rescan/import after you've added new music,
or use a tool like the iTunes Library Updater to do this for you.

I do something slightly different, as my music is on a raid5 filesystem on
my Windows box, which I network mount to my Linux box to run Slimserver on.
Same concept.  I still mount the music drive to other clients for use with
iTunes.

No.
