• 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.

Installing snort inline

madadam

Basic Pleskian
Has anyone had any success or can anyone offer advice on installing snort in inline mode on a server running Plesk 8.2 with the firewall module?

From the snort docs:

In order for Snort Inline to work properly, you must download and compile the iptables code to include ``make install-devel'' (http://www.iptables.org). This will install the libipq library that allows Snort Inline to interface with iptables. Also, you must build and install LibNet, which is available from http://www.packetfactory.net.

iptables 1.3.0-2 is installed with Plesk 8.2.1, but is LibNet / snort compatible with the Plesk firewall module? Are there any known issues?
 
The PSA firewall overwrites your firewall options with its own, I would highly recomend not using it if you intend on using programs that manipulate iptables.
