Maybe I'm not understanding the question sarit16 but ftp to ftp is how ftp works. You log in via ftp to a remote ftp site.

So I will guess that maybe you mean you want all the stored passwords and logins etc from the ftp program on one computer to put at another? If that's the case it's easy depending on ftp program. I use WSFTP and when I bought a new computer and wanted to not have to redo all the contact, passwords and logins for all the sites I manage I simply copied the entire wsftp folder to the new computer.

This cane be done via email, zip up the folder and email it to your computer in Sydney. Open it and extract the entire folder into a newly named folder called ftp at the Sydney site. It will work fine. I've moved my ftp stuff three times. The program doesn't have to be installed like some do. It'll run as normal and all logins etc will be there.

apologies if I have misunderstood the question, try stating it a little more defined - as in exactly what are you trying to do?
