Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Hosting Security and Technology : Backup from 1 ftp account to another without ssh access

[pueblosnet]

Actually I make backup in 1 ftp account, also I have another ftp account what I don't use it. Do you know how to copy files directly from 1 ftp account to another one?

1 ftp account it's with bqbackup.com
1 ftp account it's with another backup provider

any of them have ssh access, so I'm looking to something like copy-at-the-fly ftp? without downloading all first to another server?

thanks.

Your answer would be FXP (aka Site-to-Site Transfer)
However, most FTP installations will have this 'feature' blocked for security reasons.

A possible client is FlashFXP

The simple way would be to connect to your bqbackup account with SSH, and then use the command-line FTP or SCP commands to copy files directly between servers.

Make a script in the server having ssh access to read the ftp details, connect to the remote server and automatically transfer all files.
