Today I started a xpat search and got the forst time the message: server xx ,server xy are aliase. Is this only a settings problem?
What are aliase? All my servers are working...

It means both server xx and server xy are going to the same IP address.

And what does that mean? I'm using newsfeeds servers. But it is the first time I see those message.
Can I change it?

It means they are both the same computer and you have 2 sets of connections going to it.

This is a Newsfeeds issue. If you check the members' section at its site, you'll see that they are moving/reconfiguring servers. Should only be temporary.

but I get this message for 6 "double" servers!
I wrote to newsfeeds support and hope that I will get the answer.

here is the answer from newsfeeds:

"We are moving our east coast servers this weekend so we have made it so both links go to the west coast servers. We have also doubled the download limit on the west coast server to make up for the inconvience of not having the east coast servers for a couple of days. We are hoping this server move will better improve our service to our customers.

Thank you,
