These messages are only notes that something went wrong when running the 
scripts. For example wrong smb credentials for accessing the host. What is 
the Host OS ?

The messages should be shown as "Security note" within OpenVAS-Client.This 
will not mean that this host is vulnerable. In this cases it only means  that 
something went wrong running the scripts and give you a hint what happend.

Probably wrong credentials. These scripts need credentials for administrator 
or user with administration rights. 
Firewall active on target host ?
