I set up MediaWiki 1.10rc1 downloaded from http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.10/ and set $wgImportSources to my two other installations' databases as per http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:%24wgImportSources - and set 'import' permission for sysops (not 'importupload'). I also set the interwiki prefixes for my local wikis and Wikimedia Commons, English Wikipedia and Meta. I tried to import [[:en:w:Stoke-upon-Trent]] and [[:en:w:Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion]], plus [[commons:User:SunStar Net]] for import but when I tried to import them it said no import source had been defined. If it works for other wikis on localhost (or the same server), why not for Wikimedia projects??
You claim to have set $wgImportSources to include two local wikis, but don't mention adding the prefixes for the Wikimedia wikis in question. These will need to be added, too, before it will work. Note that another issue might prevent transwiki from a Wikimedia web site without the application of r21933 (on trunk). You will need the cURL module available for PHP.
