It's not complaining. That's a "N" log message, meaning "Notice," as
in, "If you think there should be a LocalHostName override, there is a
problem because there is no override. But, I'll continue on under the
assumption that you want to use the 'default' LocalHostName, which will
be your system's hostname." :)
In other words, your system is set up the way most are--such that it
uses the hostname as the LocalHostName.
