Your NS records at the parent servers are:
ns1.mydomain.com. [my.ns1.ip.address] [TTL=172800] [US]
ns2.mydomain.com. [my.ns2.ip.address] [TTL=172800] [US]
[These were obtained from b.gtld-servers.net]
ns1.mydomain.com. [my.ns1.ip.address] [TTL=172800] [US]

Warning: Your NS records at your authoritative DNS servers have TTLs that do not match what the parent servers report:
ns2.mydomain.com. [TTL 172800 at parent; 14400 at my.ns1.ip.address]
ns1.mydomain.com. [TTL 172800 at parent; 14400 at my.ns1.ip.address]
In some cases, this can cause some serious problems. For example, if the parent servers have a 172800 second TTL (48 hours), and your authoritative DNS servers report a TTL of 3600 seconds (1 hour), you are saying that the parent DNS servers do not have the correct information. But, after 1 hour your DNS records may time out. At that point a DNS resolver will need to get fresh NS records. This can cause a serious problem in some cases.

I'm not sure what this is telling me or what I need to do to correct it- can anyone help me understand?
Where exactly is the 172800 set? Is that set with the root servers and something I can't change?
