FXP Transfers

Here is how to proceed to directly transfer files or whole directories from one FTP server to an other:
Start IglooFTP and connect to the FTP server where you want the files to be uploaded.
Start an other IglooFTP session (Menu "FTP" -> "New session") then connect to the FTP server where the files are currently located(Next steps have to be executed in this session).
Select the files/directories you want to transfer.
In the "Transfer" menu, choose "FXP transfer".
Here you will be presented a dialog box with all running IglooFTP sessions listed. Just select the one with the hostname and remote directory corresponding to the first session you launched (e.g. hostname and directory where you want to transfer the files) then press "Start"
A dialog box will appear and the transfer would normally start.


Requirements:

The FTP server where you want the files to be uploaded must support the PASV command.
The FTP server from where you want the files to be transfered must support the PORT command.
