You will have to contact that host as only they will know what port SSH is running on or they may have to allow the IP your connecting from access.

[crazyaboutlinux]

is there any other way to transfer the domains ?

Make a backup on the old server, ftp to new server and then restore on the new server.

better to backup all domains, place backup copy in some folder, and use rsync to copy all backup files to another server.

Best option....is rsync

If you don't have root access on the server you are migrating accounts from, you will be unable to use this feature.

i have root access & SSH port, however i am getting the same error.

The first thing I recommend doing in this situation is making sure your one server can SSH to the other server. The easiest way to test this is to SSH into the server you are migrating data to. Then from that server, SSH to the server you are migrating data from. It is important you SSH from the one server to another, just SSHing directly from your machine to both servers will not properly test anything.

Let me know if you can SSH from one server to another, but WHM is still giving you issues with transfers.

how can i do this ?????

see i have 2 dedicated servers & i have completed SSH & root access

whenever i try move domain from server A to server B it gives me error as it mentioned in this thread already

but when i try to move any domain from server B to server A & its moving successfully.

hope this clear

Are you familiar with using SSH to connect to a server?

[crazyaboutlinux]

yes

i know

[cPanelDavidG]

yes

i know

Okay, just making sure since I know not everyone knows how to use SSH.

What you do is first SSH to the IP address of the server you are migrating accounts to. Now, once you're logged into the console on that server, type the SSH command on that server so you can connect to the IP address of the server you are migrating accounts from.

Do you understand? If not, please let me know where you are confused.

[crazyaboutlinux]

there is no confusion

i did below

1. /scripts/pkgacct <account name >
2. scp -P 1234 /home/packaged account root@secondserverip :/home/

then login server B & run below

scripts/restorepkg user name here

scp -p (if you are behind SSH port)

& i have done successfully.

Hmm, okay. Since that worked properly but the WHM mechanism is not working, I recommend letting our technical analysts take a look at this for you: http://tickets.cPanel.net/submit - they will be able to diagnose the cause of the connection refused transfer issues.
