RN2120 "Problem connecting to server" message at each Mac start

Dear all,

 

I get everytime I start my Mac the following pop-up:

 

There was a problem connecting to the server “********”.

The server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again.

 

I m connected through AFP and SMB, and at times I am connected and at times I have to go to Finder to connect. Has anybody the same issue? I have 6.4.1 on my RN2120.

 

Jaime

    Which other services are you running?

    Are you running any apps?

      Not at the moment the message appears. Some background OS X services maybe, but nothing special.

        He's asking about services/apps on the NAS, not the PC.
