FTP server to FTP server transfer

[thecoolnessrune]

I have two FTP servers. Both are hosted by other companies. Is there any way to make one server connect to the other and send its files to the other one? The only other way I can think to achieve this would be to download all the files off of one server and upload them to the other. But that would be time consuming. Is there any way to make the servers use their internet connections to transfer?

The best way to do it is through FXP. Both servers have to support FXP, but you still do have to have a 3rd party client to initiate the FXP transfer.

Here's a little more info on FXP: http://www.smartftp.com/support/kb/index.php/14

that seems good. Is there any free apps known?

Two off the top of my head that will do FXP are SmartFTP and FlashFXP

SmartFTP is free for personal, non-profit, or educational use. :beer:

What sucks though is that even if it supports the protocol, you have no way to check the status of the transfer

true but hopefully it will have a low failure rate
