Heya odd. ioFTPD 5.x can only SSL in a server role, therefor there is no way for two 5.x servers to FXP over SSL. Since you have a v6 ioFTPD this should work.

If you're using FlashFXP make sure you enable FXP SSL for both sites. I think Flash properly recognizes that one site (the v6 one) supports SSCN to configure client mode so it will do that and let the other default to a server role. Things should just work.

If it doesn't just work, try disconnecting from both sites and reconnect with the sides switched. So if site A was on the left, site B was on the right connect with B on the left this time. This can reverse the client/server roles for the two sites... I think that's what I did way back when I tested v5 talking to v6 and it didn't work at first. I think FlashFXP got smarter since then though.
