How do I check whether my webspace/ftp account supports site 2 site transfer? Is there a button in FXP?
If not is there a linux command with which I could check?
Thanks for any help!

The only way to know is to actually try a site to site transfer.

ok, thanks. That actually failed on all site i have tried.

Is there a way I can activate fxp on my servers? I have full root access...

you need to consult documentation for ftp server software to find out how to enable fxp

which daemon is running on your server?

If you're running ProFTPD, see this page:
http://www.proftpd.org/docs/directives/linked/config_ref_AllowForeignAddress.html

You have to add it to your config file (/etc/proftpd.conf on most distros)
