  • 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.

DNS Command line - delete TXT record?

I'm trying to delete a TXT record from the command line, but I can't seem to get the syntax right. This is for a local DNS block list script I'm working on. All the records are in the form 1.0.0.127.dnsbl.example.com (which would list the IP 127.0.0.1), with an TXT record that gives some details about the block. I can add and remove A records, and add TXT records just fine.

I add the TXT record with:
/usr/local/psa/bin/dns -a dnsbl.example.com -txt "some detail" -domain 1.0.0.127

But
/usr/local/psa/bin/dns -d dnsbl.example.com -txt "" -domain 1.0.0.127 (or with -txt "some detail")
gives "Unable del record in DNS server: unable find DNS record"

The documentation isn't clear at all, so hopefully someone here can point me in the right direction.
