server to server files shifting not working

Hi

I read on a website that I can login to my old host and new host using smartFTP and then just click-n-drag files from old host to new host window and files will be moved server to server quickly.

I did the same but when I click-n-drag files I get error like

'i wont connect to TARGET SERVER IP and will work with only SOURCE SERVER IP'


I am stuck with this, I wonder if anyone could help me to use this feature, if it exists.

I know SSH, tar, SCP thing but my account is on hostgator and they dont allow ssh for shared hosting therefore i need to find some subway to move my files rapidly.

thank you very much in advance

If your server doesn't support FXP (server to server) transfers downoad the files to your local computer and upload them to the remote server.
