Thanks.  I'm not sure I want to enable login as su, as it seems that it
is not recommended for security reasons (though I'm still relatively new
to Ubuntu, so will read up some more about it).

Any idea why the script needs to run this command with su in the first
place? Although running the script asks me for my password, simply
running:

/path/to/MusicMagicServer start works without needing sudo or a
password.

In fact, if I edit the script so that the line that reads:

su - <user> -c $MUSICHOME"MusicMagicServer start & > /dev/null"

now reads 

/path/to/MusicMagicServer start & > /dev/null

then I can run the script from the command line and it works with no
password.  It still doesn't run at boot; but this might be progress.
