LaCie Ethernet Disk mini Home Edition

I'm considering buying a "LaCie Ethernet Disk mini Home Edition" http://www.lacie.com/us/products/product.htm?pid=10994 . The specs for this device says that it has iTunes Server support.
Can I use this to stream content to my Apple TV without my computer being on. Thanks...

15" Powerbook G4 1.67mhz, Mac OS X (10.5.1)

I have an Lacie Ethernet gigabit mini disk 500GB. Software 1.1.2.1 and Apple TV.

In apple Tv appears the itunes library shared EDmini (the lacie ethernet disk) but when a i try to connect it, apple tv tell me to introduce the passcode into the ITUNES....

And that it's the problem!!! It's not possible to introduce any code.

Do anybody know the answer for this problem?

It's possible to configure apple TV for not be necesary PASSCODE before connect to a itunes library?

just to be sure you know.. you can't connect this device directly to the AppleTV with no iTunes running on a computer somewhere.

you must have iTunes running on a computer with it's iTunes Library defined as residing on the network drive... all the network drive gives you is the ability to place the drive anywhere on your network rather than directly attached to the computer running iTunes... i.e. this drive isn't a replacement for iTunes.. everything must go through iTunes.
