FTP between servers?
| Posted by tech-pro, 05-01-2008, 02:45 PM |
| Does anyone know of an FTP client that lets you transfer files directly between one server and another (to avoid downloading/uploading)? Preferably that runs on Linux!

| If you just want to transfer files you could also try scp command for Linux and WinSCP for Windows. Runs on SSH protocol.

| winscp doesn't run on linux
Two good ftp clients on linux are ncftp or yafc depending on your taste, and GNU MC if you want something with menus.

| Thanks, guys. Once I learned that I needed to look for "FXP" I found quite a few candidates, and even discovered I already had one installed - gFTP.
I can connect to two servers, but when I try to drag a file from one to the other it freezes at the PORT command. I then find that I have no Internet connectivity at all from my entire network, and have to reboot the router!! (The SMC 7904VoWBRA is a piece of junk.)
I guess I'll just have to give this idea up.

| If you have shell access to the two servers, you can connect from one server to other using ftp and upload/download directly from one to other using ftp commands such as get,put,mget,mput etc.

| Actually, do you have root on both machines? I'm sure it's just a matter of changing a couple settings on each to enable FXPing ability...
