The music files and the directories they're in will have a set of
permissions for the owner, group and all users.  It's worth checking to
see who the files are owned by, and if not 'slimserver', then that all
users have read, and possibly execute permission.

Slimserver will 'see' the file if the scanning process logged it in the
database, but if it's moved or doesn't have the right permissions, it
won't be able to stream it.

Is there any reason why you're running Slimserver 6.3 BTW?  The last
stable release is 6.5.4 IIRC, and Squeezecenter 7 will shortly be
released.

There is an easy install of the SC7 betas for ubuntu - you just enable
the correct repository, and apt-get install it.
