FXP transfer allow to transfer files directly between 2 servers.
If SERVER A has 100mbit connection, SERVER B has 100mbit connection but CLIENT has only 56k connection, FXP transfer will still go at full 100mbit.
data is being sent between 2 server directly bypassing client's (slow) connection.
in addition to pureftpd and proftpd, read
