Ok, several people have asked you more more info and you aren't really offering anything up, so I will offer up what I think is the simplest solution, however, it would help to know what you are actually trying to do.

This is a 2 script solution. script1 is on server1, script2 is on server2.

Script1 is kicked off somehow (depending on what you are doing) either a call from a browser, a post action in a form, a cron job, whatever.

script1 collects or retrieves data (whatever your initial data source is)
script1 writes the data to a file on server1 (or could write it via ftp it to server2)
script1 then does an fopen() to script2 on server2

script2 opens the file created by script1 whether via fopen() to the url for the file on server1 or an fopen() to the file where it was written on server2
script2 performs whatever steps are required to be performed on the data (writes it to a database, performs verification, jerks off to it, whatever)
script2 returns a done message (which could be the results of the steps performed in script2).

done.

There are, as people have said, many different ways to skin this particular cat. It seems to me though, from watching this conversation, that you need to draw out your step by step of what you are actually trying to do.
