  Old  Mass backup accounts to remote FTP with ROOT access and cPanel/WHM. How?

Hey, I have a VPS and about 140 accounts on it. I've also got cPanel and WHM installed. I'm moving to a new host, but the thought of having to move all these accounts manually really makes me lazy I have to go into each account and go to backup -> backup to remote FTP, and yeah..

Is there any way I can mass backup all of my accounts, or all accounts I select, to a specified FTP server?

I only have root access on my VPS, but not on the server I'm moving all the backups to.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You can try logging into WHM and clicking 'Transfers'

Hmm, I only see:

Transfers

* Copy an account from another server
* Copy an account from another server with account password
* Copy multiple accounts/packages from another server
* Review Copied Accounts

I can't find any "Copy multiple accounts TO another server". And like I said, I only have root access on my VPS, not on the destination server.

Can you connect to SSH on your VPS? Surely you have WHM on the VPS to do this?

I'll transfer them depending on the VPS setup.

You should be able to transfer all the accounts using SSH. Its in the "Tranfers" section in WHM.

Hello,

Since you don't have root access to your new server, you will just have to ask your hosting provider to do this for you.

can you do this?
