Can someone give me a clue what this means and where to start looking for the fix?

A tried changing the smb.conf file as suggested in other related threads, but to no avail.
What does "no host "(null)" can be found exactly mean?
Where do I check that the spelling is correct?
Where do I check the proxy settings?
Why should I check the proxy settings if I am not using one?
