ftp upload from server to server

Hi all,
Can anyone please help me about this problem?
I want to upload file from one server to another using some sort of
php class or some another PEAR file?
For now I have downloaded pear file from pear.php.net.

It works great but when I want to send files to some servers I get an
error. The script makes a file with 0(zero) bytes, and then I get a
message like "There was some error with uploaded file"?

I have dedicated server on windows OS.

cheers,
danijel

How about showing us the code you're using?

Well, I've never used Pear's Net_FTP, but from what I see here, it looks
like the code is OK.

Can you manually ftp to the server from your machine, using the userid
and password you supplied above?

I guess it's possible that the response on webmasterworld is correct,
but I would have thought the server would block the transfer before the
file was created.

However, the setting would be on the receiving server's end, not yours.
So you would have to check with the admins of the servers you're
trying to ftp to.

The way to test this would be to use the remote desktop to log into your
server and repeat the ftp test. If you can't upload that way, then
chances are it is the remote server blocking you.

A distant chance would be that your server is blocking outgoing ftp
transfers, but I wouldn't expect that to be the case since it's working
on some sites.

Be very sure both FTP servers allow this (default for most is off or
totally not supported). The process is known as FXP if that helps, see

thanks Rik for that tip.We solved that issue. Our ftp server was
blocking connections.
