As best I can tell, this isn't well-supported by FTP[1] which doesn't
seem to have a native "copy this file from server-location to
server-location bypassing the client". There's a pair of RNFR/RNTO
commands that allow you to rename (or perhaps move as well) a file which
ftplib.FTP.rename() supports but it sounds like you want too copies.
In theory, the FTP spec supports "three-way transfers", where the
source, destination, and control can all be on different machines.
But no modern implementation supports that.
