how to: FTP server-to-server?
Hi,
How can I transer a file via FTP from one host to another host? It's a large file and I don't want to download (and then upload) it.

I am not sure if you can do it via FTP...but you can do it via SSH. Pretty simple command.

I've never heard of it...It looks like a pretty neat resource:
"FlashFXP allows you to transfer files from any FTP server directly to your local hard drive, or transfer files between two ftp sites (site-to-Site transfers), giving you total control over any situation. "

I've been running FlashFXP for years. In my rebelious days, this used to work great for certain things.
As for using it from 1 of my servers to another, I've never been able to get it to work.
Server settings?

Yes, you have to enable FXP in your ftpd. Some FTPd's check if the login IP is the same as the destination IP, if it doesn't then it blocks the transfer...
Also you will need passive FTP enabled for FXP to work.
By the way, if you have ssh access to one of those 2 servers you can log into that server and open an FTP connection to the other.
