Logging into my IB account live for the first time, NT successfully synced up the 8 open positions (actually I wasn't expecting it to do this and it scared the heck out of me, but anyway... :) ), but when it synced up the stop orders on those positions (which were opened by me through TWS previously), one of them threw this error:

Order='XXXXXXXXXXXXX' Name='External' New State=Rejected Instrument='XXXXX' Action=Sell Limit price=0 Stop price=58.25 Quantity=XXX Type=Stop Filled=0 Fill price=0 Error=OrderRejected Native error='Error validating request:-'qb' : cause - The symbol or the local-symbol must be entered (321)'

Do I need to worry about this?

Hello,

Please ensure that the exchange you have selected for the instrument in NinjaTrader matches the one that TWS is using.

From the Control Center -> Tools -> Instrument Manager you can slect the instrument and ensure it is set to the right exchange.
