Hi,
I want to move a huge amount of data (e.g 25 mb to 50 mb) from one remote server to another remote server.And i don't have telnet access.
Moreover i don't want to stay connected all the time.
Does anybody know a tool that can be useful to me ??
Any help in this regard would be sincerly appreciated..
Eagerly awaiting any response

Thanks/Regards
Great Techno.

I'm guessing your on a dial-up, if thats the case I'd have someone with a broadband download it and up it to the new location. If they don't want too, then pay them.... I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but thats the only way I know how to do it.

that seems like the thing to do, if you have internet access that u can stay connected for as long as u like then it shouldn't be a problum. though it is a good idea to get someone with a faster connection.

Some FTP clients, such as http://www.smartftp.com/ , support FXP, which supposedly lets you FTP server-to-server. WS_FTP Pro ( http://www.ipswitch.com/ ) looks like it has this feature too. The servers would have to support this. I've never tried it myself. I was at the point of investigating it once, but then I remembered that since I had telnet access to one of the servers, I didn't need it.

Another option (if you know Perl) is to write a Perl script which uses the Net::FTP module to do the transfer.

Hey everybody,

I happened to come across a site
http://www.ftpy-ah.com
this site may not be perfect but it does serve the purpose of transfer of data from one server to another. And it is unbelieveably fast.
The main problem with the site is that it does not allow you to access your local Hard Disk.
Regards,

The obvious question: is it safe to trust that site with the FTP access info for your servers? shocked
