unusual file copy problem

[David Schwartz]

I have a “reseller” type shared hosting account where I have a WHM that lets me create cPanel accounts. IOW, I don’t have root access.

There’s a skel folder on the main account, and when i create a new cPanel account, it copies files into the new account. Pretty standard for *nix systems.

I’m looking for a way to copy files from one of my cPanel accounts to another without having to download to my local machine then upload to the other account.

They’re both accounts I have control of on the same server in the same /home filetree.

But their support says there’s no way to do that other than with skel, but that’s not what I want. They’re already set up.

Basically I simply want to copy some zip files from one account to a few others as directly as possible.

Surely there’s got to be a way to do that, maybe FTP-to-FTP, or a little script I can put in each public_html folder that does a copy….

Puzzled minds want to know. :)
