I added this to /etc/samba/smb.conf.

[iTunes]

path = /home/myusername/iTunes

valid users = myusername

writable = yes

This has the desired effect, except that for some reason I can't edit file attributes:

Access Denied
Not Found

I'm assuming this is because I need to add a certain setting to my configuration. How do I grant the necessary permissions to myusername?

I found the solution to my problem. It turns out the problem isn't related to Samba after all. Sorry. :)

I've paraphrased the answer here by request:

Go to your iTunes folder and move the iTunes Library file to your desktop. (You might want to create a backup of all the files in the main folder if you're worried you're gonna lose data.)

Restore your library by dragging the iTunes Library file from your desktop into the iTunes window. In the iTunes window that pops up, click Replace.
