transfering web sites remotly

[Dennis]

Hi, I need to transfer 300-400 megs from one live web site to another. It
seems like I can do this in FP03 by just opening up both sites and drag and
drop files/dirs or publish/synchronize. I am reaching my limit of bandwidth
usage with my cable ISP and don't want to upload such a large site from my
local copy. So I am wondering if the data being transferred from one site to
the other is actually passing through my PC first or somehow using my
bandwidth? or is FP creating the link from one web site directly to the
other and my PC is just monitoring/controling the transfer?

Thanks

If you mean from one online hosted server to another online hosted server (both having the FP SE)
Just open one URL in FP and publish to the other URL
- the files won't physically go thru your PC, but that doesn't means your ISP won't count it as bandwidth use

Yeah, that's what I mean. Thanks for that. I don't mind if the bandwidth is
counted on my hosting accounts (completely separate from my cable account)
just as long as I don't have 300-400 megs counted on my ISP cable account
and if the file aren't going through my PC then I don't see how it could be
counted as bandwidth usage on my ISP account.
