Assuming implicit lookup table with filename blah.csv

Why do I get this message?

Assuming implicit lookup table with filename sidtodn.csv

It seemed to me that I was fairly explicit about the lookup table:

Here's my search:

sourcetype="WinEventLog:Security" CategoryString="Directory Service Access" Accesses="Create Child"
| rename Additional_Info AS DN
| dedup DN
| join  usetime=true earlier=false  DN [search sourcetype=activedirectory admonEventType="update" displayName="$CimsUser*" | rename distinguishedName AS DN ]
| lookup sidtodn.csv objectSid as parentLink OUTPUT distinguishedName AS parent
| table parent name uid gid home unix_enabled User

Note, I'm having to join on DN's because GUID and SID output is broken in 4.1.5.

The easiest way to get rid of this message is to define the lookup in transforms.conf. For example:

[sidtodn]
filename = sidtodn.csv

Then you can refer to the lookup as lookup sidtodn ....

Thanks. That worked, but I strongly question the value of that error message.
