  • 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.

Issue Fail2Ban blocking Web_user - No Xferlog

Jayson

Basic Pleskian
Hello,

I recently upgraded to 12.5 and have enabled Fail2Ban. I'm getting complaints that it keeps blocking a customer trying to use his configured Web_User account. I'd rather not whitelist his IP and wanted to check xferlog for reasons for blocking. Under his domain logs the last entry I see in xferlog_regular.processed was from October and it appears like this for other domains which should have ftp statistics.

I found the KB https://kb.plesk.com/en/127106 and although /etc/proftpd.conf has
"TransferLog /var/log/plesk/xferlog" those files are 0 bytes.

/var/log/plesk
-rw-r-----. 1 root root 0 Nov 9 03:37 xferlog
-rw-r-----. 1 root root 0 Oct 15 03:08 xferlog.processed

Under the domain statistics I see the old xferlog files,

/customerdomain/statistics/logs
-rw-r--r--. 2 root root 0 Oct 14 03:51 xferlog_regular
-rw-r--r--. 2 root root 14177642 Oct 14 03:51 xferlog_regular.processed

Thanks,
