How to move a site to another server?
I have around 200 GB I need to move to another server.
I know cuteFTP pro can make a site-to-site transfer but only with a few supported ftp server programs. Any other methods? |

you need to do it via ssh more or less like this
login to the shell compress the directories using tar and gzip then split the tarball and use wget to transfer it server to server you could get it done within a few hours if your servers are uncapped 200 gigs with cuteftp might take forever

you can use netcat or ttcp.
tar -cpvf - * | nc ipofyournewserver 5000 nc -l -p 5000 | tar -xpvf - |

depending on the network you may or may not want to consider getting the drive physically replicated ;)

When I move servers I always get the new host to copy it over, may be worth a go?
