• 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.

Question CLI random password for customer/subscription user/mail accounts

Nick

New Pleskian
Is there a command line feature to generate a random password when using the customer/subscription/mail CLI utilities? Or a way to update to a random password after the creation of those things is done?
 
this?


hmm, that’s handy in its own way, and I suppose does answer the original question.

we were looking to generate a plesk admin password that matches all the Plesk requirements. Specifically the set of symbols that are allowed is rather limited. We used the utility apg but had to enter a lot of excluded symbols. but now apg is no longer available in the centos8 epel repo.
I was hoping for something like:

plesk bin passgen -policy verystrong -qty 5

where it would spit out Plesk compatible passwords that abide by the specified policy.
