Hello:

I have some data i would like to transfer from one account to another account using server to server copy.

I don't like to make my data public or share it with the second account.

I need to find a way to copy those data keeping the original share flag set to private.

I know i can make this by simply download file from first account and upload it to the second account using VPS, but download and upload is not an option for my need.

Any way i can do this?

Thanks.

when you posted, you should have been asked for information.  
perhaps you did not see it so i have pasted it for you.

#### What is the problem you are having with rclone?

#### What is your rclone version (output from `rclone version`)

#### Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)

#### Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

#### The command you were trying to run (eg `rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp`)
