Hi All,

I'm a complete noob with FreeNAS who after some reading decided to risk and create my own NASserver. I've downloaded and installed FreeNAS-9.2.1.5-RELEASE-x64 (80c1d35). I've followed the several manuals available and at first sight everything looks great. I've created my datasets and shares, I can access it throughout the network, and it just seems great... except... I have these errors on the server terminal which I cannot understand. I've tried to search for these errors on the forum but couldn't find anything. Can someone point me out what can be the problem? Is this problematic for my data?

Disable "hostname lookup" in your CIFS configuration. It is not dangerous.
