You mean using the curl command line tool? And "from one server to another" is
not very detailed to me. Using what protocol(s) ?

AFAIK, there is only one way to do "from one server to another" that doesn't
involve a middle machine that first downloads and then uploads, and that is
FTP 3rd transfers.

Well, using:

   curl -O http://someServer/folder/folder/fileName-{22,23,00}.mp3

Should download three files and store them on your machine. If not, it is a
curl bug.

curl does file transfers, I can't see how you can trick it into generating
anything RSSish.
