Modern iTunes is reported as no longer producing the XML file automatically. In any case - take a look inside it with a text editor and you will see the way that the path to the files is written. LMS needs to be able to read the files. The iTunes XML is simply a listing showing where to find them. So you will need to share out the file system where the files are stored so that the system where LMS is can mount it. That is the first step that you will need to do whether or not you use the iTunes XML.
