I have a site on hostmonster that I would like to backup some of the files on a hosgator site I have. I would like to do this without downloading files to my system and then uploading to hostgator. Here are some problems I have found... Hostgator does not have SSH access on shared accounts smartftp and flashfxp I cannot get to work (I think monster and gator may not support fxp) Has anyone figured out a way to do this? Thanks big time!
You could create a script (or find 1) that could connect to the old server using php and downloads all files onto the new server. If done correctly it could keep the structure of the site as well as check chmod settings and apply as needed when it download them onto the new server. Apart from that without fxp ability or SSH access you will not be able to do it.
or you could request a Jailed shell access from hostgator, they provided me before but you have to submit a copy of your scanned id to them. best of luck.
