well, for flash fxp to work, fxp must be enabled by each ftp daemon. Flash FXP is the best, and one of the only FXP enabled clients out there, but ive seen one or two command line ones.
You could do it two other ways.
1.) Download everything to your local machine, and re-upload to new server, but when you have gigs and gigs this is rather unpracticle.
2.) Use a command line ftp client on one server, and connect to the other and download it that way.

You can do this using just telnet (if your FTP client won't support it), if the two FTP servers support this type of transfer. I think this has been standard in the FTP protocol since day 1.
