migrate account between directadmin and directadmin?
Hi,
i need to migrate some accounts on my server with directadmin.
I thought there was a tool for this, but i can't find it.
Can anyone help me out?
Or what is the most comfortable way of doing this?
Many thanx in advance!
grtz,
tom

You can use Admin Backup/Transfer feature

I've found that the remote FTP transfer method isn't very effective. I usually just use Wget via SSH. That way, I can view the status of my transfer. In DirectAdmin, you don't even know if it's transferring or not. My remote backup transfer didn't show up until 2 days later where it told me that it failed to transfer.

You can see in SSH if ftp is running or not. If the backup file is big, you can see the transfer at bandwidth graph too. We have moved multiple accounts with TB(s) data over the Internet without trouble, when using Admin Backup/Transfer feature

So, first backup the account that has to be transferred, and wget that file to the new server.
I suppose i have to first make that account already on the new server?
Or can i create new account starting from a backup?
