Thanks for your help.  I was finally able to get things working on my
setup (itunes library/music on linux NAS, access it through itunes
running on a mac) combined w/ the squeezebox boom.  Some notes:

1)I had to scour the older versions of the plugin in order to get the
itunesupdate.pl script.  

2) I realized that I must run this on the Mac that has iTunes going on
it.  Not on the linux box that has the actual library.  

3)In order to point the .pl script to the history txt file that the
plugin generates (which was created at the root level of my NAS), I had
to create a symbolic link on my media share mounted on the map.  

4)The itunesupdate.pl file that I downloaded needs the #!/usr/bin/perl
added to the top of it.

5)As you mentioned (and in the readme file), I had to get a few perl
modules that allow perl to run applescript commands (this is how it
controls itunes to update the tracks).  Prior to doing this as directed
in the readme, I had to set up fink and install some prerequisite
programs lynx and wget.  I also downloaded precompiled install packages
for ncftpget and gpg from their sites.

After all of this, I was FINALLY able to get it working.  I'm very
happy that I have this ability now, It's just not that simple for the
(probably)unconventional setup I run.  Thanks again!
