What's it trying to tell me with the MNAME warning?

I don't get why the following shows up as a warning in the Domain Report:

 

SOA field check

One or more SOA fields are outside recommended ranges. Values that are out of specifications could cause delays in record updates

or unnecessary network traffic. The SOA fields out of range are:

mname | cpns1.greenfoxhosting.com. | MNAME - we check that this name matches one of the nameservers

that we have found.

 

When the NS's for the domain show as the following:

 

Parent zone provides

NS records

Parent zone exists and provides NS records. This is good because some domains, usually third or fourth level domains, such as

'example.co.us' do not have a direct parent zone. This is legal but can cause confusion. The NS Records provided are (nameserver | IP

Address | TTL):

cpns1.greenfoxhosting.com. | 68.67.121.168

cpns2.greenfoxhosting.com. | 68.67.121.169

 

And the SOA record shows the correct NS:

SOA record check

All nameservers provided a SOA record for the zone. This is good because your nameservers should be configured in a master slave

relationship, which allows uniform updates and agreement of resource record data. The SOA records provided are:

 

Primary nameserver: cpns1.greenfoxhosting.com.

Hostmaster E-mail address: support@greenfoxhosting.com.

Serial #: 2013071811

Refresh: 86400

Retry: 7200

Expire: 3600000

Minimum: 86400

 

I've attached the report as well.
