Connects, makes new folders, but does not transfer files

[macrodev]

I just downloaded your program yesterday and trying it out. I've been looking for a server-to-server application....really have high hopes for FlashFXP.

* FlashFXP v[3].[2.0], build [1080], [ ]registered, [X]unregistered, [ ]pirated
* OS [X] WinXP, [ ] Win2K, [ ] Win98, [ ] WinME, [ ] Other
* Running behind NAT/router [X] Yes & Model [ DLINK DI-824VUP], [ ] No, [ ] Not sure
* Running firewall [ ] Yes, Name [ ], Ver. [ ], or [X] No
* Running Antivirus [X] Yes, Name [ NAV 2003 ] or [ ] No
* Network [ ] xDSL, [X] CABLE, [ ] Dail-Up, [ ] Other

NOTE: ABOVE IS WHAT MY LOCAL MACHINE IS DOING...NOT THE 2 SERVERS

additional info if related
* FTP server(s) name [ ], version [ ]

SOURCE SERVER: RED HAT LINUX 2.4.21-40.ELsmp with CPANEL. Able to successfully send a backup to receiving server using CPanel's 'full backup' application, but sends it as a .tar.gz file.

RECEIVING SERVER:
Unix with H-Sphere

Also I turned passive mode off...but it seems to still go into passive mode

The FTP servers are configured to disallow site to site transfers. They'll need to be reconfigured, please consult your ftp docs.

[macrodev]

Would this be the ftp docs of my hosting company or documentation for FlashFXP? Also...

1) if servers don't allow server to server transfers, why would the first complete backup (using a tar file) succeed?

2) why would the creation of the new folders work?

[MxxCon]

1) i don't understand what you are asking here...
[12:27:39] [R] PORT 72,232,2,188,85,120
[12:27:39] [R] 500 Illegal PORT commandright server said it won't connect to ip other than your own.
[12:27:40] [L] PORT 205,209,109,210,255,200
[12:27:40] [L] 500 I won't open a connection to 205.209.109.210 (only to 68.84.65.61)left server said the same thing
so like bigstar said, unless both servers are reconfigured to allow fxp, it won't work.

2) create of new folder worked becuase it has nothing to do is file transfer...you just tell ftp server 'make folder named ...'
