If location B has web server software & ASP, you could:
Have the Location A CF upload form Action to an ASP upload program at
Location B
Or (I think that this will work):
Have the Location A CF upload form action a CF Template at Location A.
This template initiates the upload process to Location B by passing the
upload form information to the ASP program with CFHTTP... in effect
"sowing" the upload process to the ASP program.
The second choice prevents the user from seeing Location B.
I haven't done this with uploads, but have CFHTTP-invoked ASP stub
programs for other purposes.
