You aren't doing anything wrong -- iTunes 10.5 can't read the server share. Since HP doesn't support these anymore I wouldn't expect a fix. I've been trying to find a solution to the same issue for a few weeks now, and the WHS boards are strangely silent. The best (only) I've seen is roll back to 10.4.
It seems WHS and iTunes just aren't compatible, unless you want to start getting into loading iTunes to the server as a process, which is a bit more advanced than just taking advantage of the shared Music folder across your home network. The simple solution if you want to use iTunes on your home network is to not use your WHS, and use Apples Home Sharing. This defeats the purpose of a WHS of course which to me is very disappointing.
If anyone has any other suggestions for using iTunes on a WHS I'd be very interested in hearing them, but to me the complications of loading and configuring various software products, some of which aren't even standard WHS plug-ins, for a solution that isn't even 100% just isn't worth it to me.
