A year later butt... I was able to install an agent on a lacie appliance from the Lan Discovery, install agent option. I created a backup post script that schedules a script to run on the lacie appliance to restart the Server (lanmanserver) service, which clears all connections. i.e. net stop lanmanserver net start lanmanserver There isn't a computer browser service on the lacie, so it doesn't need to be restarted.
