• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • 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.

Can Plesk run on Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server

Just wonder if Plesk can be running on Small Business Server correctly and does it go against the Microsoft's license?

From Microsoft website:
Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server has the following restrictions:

• Only one computer in a domain can be running Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server.

• Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server must be the root of the Active Directory® forest.

• Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server cannot trust any other domains.

• A Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server domain cannot have any child domains.

• Each additional server must have a Windows Small Business Server 2003 client access license (CAL). You can use CALs for each user or for each device.
 
Plesk should run fine on Windows 2003 Small Business Server. It runs fine with the AD and all the usernames and domains it creates relate directly to the local system users (not AD) and IIS.
 
Thks ddreams, I just got a copy for our office network. Will try with plesk and maybe we will use it for hosting customers if it work fine!
