FTPing files between servers (FXP)
Hi everybody,
Does anyone know how to enable a server for fxp (a protocol which let's you FTP files from one server to another directly, without downloading them first) ? I've got a bunch of files I need to move from an old dedicated server to the new one but neither of them support fxp. I have root access to both servers, so if this requires installation of some special modules, it's not a problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Yevgeniy Leshchinskiy

Hi Yevgeniy,
You should be able to simply use the command:
ftp www.domain.com
This should connect you to the other server and from there just enter your username and password. You can upload and download (type help for commands) just like in a normal FTP program.
That should do it.

Chad,
I tried doing that, but I got a message "No route to host" .
Thanks,
