I just recently switched from a shared hosting to a vps hosting. And I'm a bit confused on how to transfer my domain name to the VPS host. When I signed up I choose the option "Transfer my domain to here" Is there anything else I need to do? Or I just wait for it to be transfered after i supply the auth code? Sorry this is my first time using a vps type hosting.
View 6 RepliesI would like to transfer a folder which contain 500 files from FTP server to another FTP server
Is' hard formeto Donwload and upload normally Is there any script which do this for me? some thing like what rapidshare.com do?
I'm in the process of switching to a new host for my websites. My old host is Servage and my new host is Dreamhost.
I'm looking for a way to directly transfer all my files from Servage to Dreamhost (i.e. don't transfer them via my PC).
Whilst Dreamhost offers a whole suite of access to their servers, Servage only offers FTP (no SFTP, no SCP, no SSH, no RSYNC). Servage also don't give any ability to create a tar.gz of my files (I tried to use a Perl script to execute a shell command to tar my files, but it didn't work )
So currently the only way I can see to get the files across to Dreamhost is to use the ftp command (via SSH on Dreamhost), but this command is severely limiting because mget can't transfer directories - it can only transfer files in a directory.
Can anyone see an easy way for me to get all files across to my new host?
I've been asking a fair few question lately here on WHT. You've all been a great help so far. I just ordered two new servers from www.northstorm.net. I want to take all my video files from my previous host, and transfer them over to my new host. There's roughly 100 files which is a total of about 8GB. I have a php script which can copy the files manually, one by one, but that's the last resort as I'm not very keen on that idea.
I have root access to both servers so I can pretty much do what I want with them. What's the best way to grab the entire contants of a ftp folder and transfer it over? I need to copy the files from my old host to one of my new servers, and then copy the files between my two new dedicated servers.
When you buy a website you have to transfer it's files to your host.how can i do that?

My technical skills: only enough to be dangerous
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
My current host is not satisfactory. Support is practically non-existant. I need to know if there is such a thing as a host that will provide transfer services as I do not have the technical ability to do it myself.
I would think the ideal situation would be to copy everything to the new host first, but as much as I've read and read about this for months, I still do not trust myself to do it.
Compared to others my sites may not be that big but I have one site that is 5 gigs and another that is about 9 gigs. I was wonder what is the best or most recommend way to transfer these sites to a new host.
I tried downloading the whole site using FireFtp but always seem to get about 3rd of the way done and something messes up the conection. Are there any better tools or methods to do this.
I also have pretty large Dbs that I'll need to transfer as well.
What does the concept of transferring a domain mean? I am asking all this because I have seen that freehostia has a service called: Domain transfer. It seems that it cost 9.95$. Then I would like to know what is the purpose of this domain transfer. I just thought that this domain transfer was the service provided for those who wanted to host a site in freehostia but had registered their domain with another company instead of with freehostia. What do you think about this?
Well, I have seen this choice of transfering a domain in another site called: http://www.bluereef.net/support/serverbasics/dns.html
So, could you help me understand the purpose and use of the service called transfering a domain that these two hosting providers mentioned above have?
I have one domain hosted as addon on Plesk. Now i want to migrate this add on domain from one user account to another user account. Is it possible to do this from plesk?

I asked Host Gator what I needed to do and they told me to register the domain at Enom and then they would send me the EPP code. Well, I registered with Enom, sent them proof it was really me, and they told me I could view the EPP code on Enomcentral
Well, I had contacted Enom and they told me that I had to ask Host Gator for help as they were responsible for helping clients with these types of issues. So, I contacted Host Gator and they referred me back to Enom... this is kind of pissing me off. My customer bought the website and domain and I've made an entire backup of the directory and he has that but the only thing left is to transfer the domain name to his preferred choice "Freeparking.com" and I just want to know how to do that.
I noticed now the domain is under hostgator domains and all I need is the EPP code. Has anyone ever had to transfer a domain through Enomcentral and how in the holy hell do you find the EPP code?
So I went onto 1and1 to register my domain name. I went into the account today to cancel and have it transferred over to my host that I selected today. I recieve this email from my new host:
We have received your domain transfer order for xxx***********, however we haven't processed your order yet since we noticed that the domain status currently shows:
status: CLIENT-TRANSFER-PROHIBITED
It is likely because you registered the domain name recently. As per ICANN guidelines, a domain can be transferred 60 days after registering only. You can confirm the reason by checking it with your current domain registrar. We request you to re-submit the domain transfer order after that.
**So the other day when folks were telling me to buy a domain name from a cheap place no one said I would be stuck for 60 days. And when I spoke to 1and1 today they never said it would not transfer either..
I have domain name registered with GoDaddy and I check my domain name emails via GoDaddy. I want to signup with Hostmonster and do a domain name transfer to HostMonster so that both email, domain name, and hosting is handled by Hostmonster.
What are the exact steps to take to ensure that my email service is up all times (and not down during the 72 hours it takes for domain name transfers)?
I'm not sure when and where to point the nameservers. And when to setup the domain email on Hostmonster.
I thought transferring was simply assigning your domain to a different host. But apparently transferring is when you want to use a different domain registrar for your domain.
So what would be the term for simply assigning a host to a domain? And do registrars or hosts usually charge for this?
First let me say how glad I am to have found this forum (I just wish I found it sooner!) I have posted a few times this week here, and am learning so much! And I have oh-so-many questions, so please bear with me
A little history.....I was w/freewebs for a few years as a free member, and recently I completely jumped to a premium member, without doing research (I didn't know any better at the time, but believe me I've learned my lesson)
I bought (2) domain names the beginning of this month (Oct 9th). I read something about a 60 day wait before transfers can be done. I also paid for the full year on both names (I do have a ticket in w/freewebs for the auth code....another member of this forum gave me phone#'s if I have trouble getting the auth#)
If I am not able to obtain the auth# from freewebs, I still want to move forward w/signing on with gatorhost....I was thinking of changing only one letter of my domain name.
But if I do end up being able to transfer my domain name from freewebs to gatorhost, would I be able to create a whole new website with gatorhost under that domain name? My current domain/website is www.aphaperformancehorses.com, but if I'm able to change that to gatorhost, what happens when people type in that address? Will they end up being directed to my freewebs site? And what happens to my freewebs site, do I need to delete it?
Or should, for now, I just cough it up to "a lesson learned
I've finally had enough and am done with ipowerweb. I wonder what their % uptime would be once you factor in that if you have a message board that goes down at least once a day.
Can anyone tell me what the transfer process is once I've found a new host? What do I have to do on my part? I assume back up my site. How long does it take, etc.?
I have some domains I need to transfer, some of which erquire hosting and some of which require just to be held temporarily.
I looked at quite a few hosting companies, but I found out .co.uk domains can only be transferred by EU companies.
The sites aren't too big, but I would require PHP, MySQL (ideally unlimited databases), emails, etc.
I am planning on a newer host soon, I would love to transfer my Domain from them to a new host when I find one as a secondary service.
Problem is I click transfer domain in the cPanel and enter the Domain and get this error:
Domain atechman.com is already registered into your account correctly.
I've had a page hosted on pagesgarden.com for about 4 years now, they were fairly cheap and the service was decent. Now they seem to have vanished entirely and I'm looking to transfer my domain to another host, but I used pagesgarden as the registrar also so I'm not entirely sure of what I should do to reclaim my domain name.
What is the process for transferring a domain name after the registrar vanishes?
Summary on Issue I have with IX Hosting
I am disappointed on the option provide to me by IX webhosting to resolved my issue.
Summary:
1. My hosting and domain was handle by a previous staff which is charge to a CC belong to that staff.
2. The staff was fired and he filled a chargeback with his CC without me knowing it on the hosting.
3. Account was then suspended and there isn't anything that I can do about it.
Option left for me:
1. Nothing that IX webhosting is able to do beside asking me to recontact my ex staff to contact his bank which is not possible (the case was closed by the bank according to my ex staff when i was able to contact him).
2. Spending another 1 - 2 year time to rebuilt another website to bring in traffic since the url and hosting are frozen by IX webhosting.
3. Filled a complain to complain board and point this problem out to public where an admin or account making payment for URL and hosting can screwed up the company at any one point while hosting with IX webhosting.
have set up a server at burst.net.But burst.net said they will not transfer my data from Dreamhost.com to my new server.I think it's a bad idea to download all my data from dreamhost to my computer and then upload them to the new server.So,is there any easier way to transfer the data from Dreamhost.com to my new server at burst.net?
It seems dreamhost has no SSH and cPanel,but my server has both of them.I heard that I can use the get/mget command to do that,

but he does own it.. and its infact in his account... unsure how to alter this, as there isnt any option in whm...
If you're buying domain name plus hosting form a reputed company I don't think you should worry but it is always good to read the TOS thoroughly before you sign up a service.

How reasonable are domains which are i8nside hosting packages? Read a lot about this, people mostly saying they should be avoided, but give no real examples, so I do not know whether to get a domain from a host, marblehost.com in particular.
Maybe someone here has corresponding experience, maybe some second-hand at least?
my previous experience has been shared all the time, and the domain is hosted with the same hosting company as the site.
1. if i have a vps, do i still need companies like godaddy to host my domain or i can just install my own domain name server to do this?
2. if i can do above. how to transfer the domain from the previous company to my dns server? if i want to register a new domain name, who do i apply to?
Sorry if this is off-topic but im registering a domain with godaddy
is it possible to register even if i dont have hosting yet?
It says:
"One or more of the nameservers you entered are either blank or incorrect. Please reenter your nameservers below. OR Park my names at GoDaddy"
What does it mean to park my names at godaddy?
1.Can I buy Domain Name from one provider and Hosting from a different provider.
2.How can I Link my Domain Name and HostedData?
