Hi @Ayushyadav19,

The disable_loopback_check recipe is really only needed if you will be referencing a shared location for your portal content and/or server config-store directories by an alias rather than the actual file server hostname (\\FileServerAlias\share). It implements method 1 from the following Microsoft KB:

Thanks, Cameron K.
