You can't copy from one folder to the other on the server. You need to
download and upload it.

If you have the remote treeview active, you can see in the upper window all
the directories on the server. So, select the source directory so you can
see the files, then drag the file you want to move and drop it into the
destination directory in the upper window. However, I think you can do only
a move that way, but not a copy. Depending on the type of server, it may
have some file manager that can do a copy.
