• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey.

  • 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.

Resolved Firewall Whitelist with my IP block me

Sergey K.

Basic Pleskian
Hello community!
I've enabled Plesk Firewall. Server is working well.

But from time to time I was not able to reach all my sites from my IP.
Access from any IPs is ok.

My IP was added in Whitelist of PleskFirewall .

Screen 1 - Screenshot

When I disable Plesk firewall and activate it again - all my access to site will be ok.
When I disable Plesk firewall - access from my IP is ok.

Hosted Server's firewall in this time was disabled.

Could you explain- is it Plesk Firewall issue or my misconfiguration?
 
Do you have fail2ban enabled? If you can't access your server from a certain IP address it's likely is got temporary banned by fail2ban. Add your IP address to the whitelist of fail2ban to prevent it from getting banned.

Thanks for the advice!
You were right.

It was fail2ban. I found by blocked IP - screen - Screenshot
Added to whitelist acc. to manual - Protection Against Brute Force Attacks (Fail2Ban)

Strange... I didn't attack my server :)
