well you could also use a gui file manager like konqueror, ftp into each in separate windows and copy, another option is sshfs, you can mount remote sftp (ssh ftp) servers as if they were local filesystems and copy as such

have you tried scp as suggested multiple times ?, fairly simple:
Code:
scp user0@system0.net:/path/to/file user1@system1.net:/path/to/file
trial and error will take you a long way.

I assume you have ssh access to both remote machines.
There are two ways you can do this.
The easy way: access both remote machines from your local computer, using any program that supports sftp/scp. If your own machine runs Windows, try WinSCP. If your own machine runs Linux, use your normal file manager.
The better way: SSH into remote machine A. From remote machine A, sftp or scp into remote machine B, then get/put your files. This is 'better' because the files go directly from remote machine A to B, rather than going via your own computer as they do in 'the easy way'.
