    Hey guys,
    I have this dedicated server which has plesk installed.

    I have 2 domains registered with plesk and it has created different ftp accounts for the 2 domains.

    I need to copy the files from the first site to the other. I know this should be done through ssh, but can someone give me a little hint on how to do so?

    Thanks guys.
    Nik

    you should use -R and -f but dont forget to chown (man chown http://www.hmug.org/man/8/chown.php ) the files to the new owner ;)
