Plugin to Upload Media to Different Server?

    I’ve split the resources on my site into two servers. One server [A] handles the WordPress installation and the second server [B]handles the database as well as offloaded static files (CSS, Javascript, images).

    Are there any plugins available that will cause media that I upload while writing new posts from the WP installation on [A] to be FTP’d/stored over on server [B]? That way that media will be served from server [B] when requested by a visitor?

    You don’t need any plugin, it’s a built-in feature.

    In the admin panel, go to Settings -> Miscellaneous Settings and enter the right info.
    Use a full path in the “folder” (for instance, /home/user/htdocs/media.server.com/blog-files) and the full URL without the tailing slash (http://media.server.com/blog-files).

    I’d like to do the same thing. I don’t see that you answer the question Felipe. How are files uploaded to the media server?

    felipe.lavin, if that is indeed a feature, then where/how do I enter in the username and password that would be required to upload the files to a different server?
