  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Issue Files become user root, group root

In your /etc/proftpd.conf file: Do you have the statements GroupOwner or UserOwner set? If these are set to "root", then all files and directories that the FTP server creates will be chowned to root.

Edit: not sure if this is even possible, manual says that UID cannot be 0 in this setting. I've never tested it myself.

Sorry but in /etc/ I don't have any proftpd file to open with vi... can you be more precise?
