  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

BIND is binding to the wrong IP address

Hello,
We are using this server as the DNS master/SOA. We are using BIND. The server is behind a firewall that is doing NAT. I expected BIND to use the address the Plesk server uses -10.10.1.20 lets say - as its primary. BIND does not use that address. It uses 10.10.1.15 which is also assigned to the same server NIC but was added later. If I remove the 10.10.1.15 address from the NIC then BIND uses the next highest IP address in the list i.e. 10.10.1.16 assigned to the NIC.

I don't know if this is as a result of a Windows server problem with IP address sourcing and binding when more that one IP address is assigned to a NIC, or if Plesk is just not assigning or using the expected IP address to configure the BIND service.
