I don't belive that you are going to be able to do that. Check https://www.smartftp.com/ for more information.

I don't think so. To do this, your server needs a ftp client. But if your server has the ftp client, you can ask the server to download the file directly...

It used to be possible to do this with a lot of servers but I think it has mostly been stopped. I think the main reason being is that it uses a lot of bandwidth and seriously slows the internet connections for other users of the server. I had a couple of servers I used to do it with but it is no longer permitted. The program I used for it was called FlashFXP, I think "FXP" is the term used for transferring from one server to another. Flash FXP allows you to connect to 2 different servers at once and you can drag and drop files from one server window to another. Needless to say the transfer rate was very quick. Just to a Google search for "FlashFXP" to find where you can download it from.Hope that helps.

I think if you open up two connections in SmartFTP and have the windows opened so you can see both just drag one file into the other. I haven't tried it before but I think it should work. If it does let me know.
