How do I got about downloading files directly to my server from another server? I'd like to transfer from one server to another without a middle computer to put them on.

Can someone tell me how this is done?

Thanks,
Kevin

wget ftp://ftp.uu.net/uumap.tar.Z

wget is wonderful if you have only html pages. If it is php or cgi pages this would fail.
Another good method is using scp (secure copy.)
Given below is the description of scp from its man page.

scp copies files between hosts on a network. It uses ssh for data transfer, and uses the same authentication and provides the same security as ssh. Unlike rcp, scp will ask for passwords or passphrases if they are needed for authentication.

Any file name may contain a host and user specification to indicate that the file is to be copied to/from that host. Copies between two remote hosts are permitted.

I hope this helps.
Have a great day :)
