• 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 Windows programs ?

mike2010

Basic Pleskian
I'd like to install a simple program called GrLevel3 . It's basically a weather radar program that FTP's to the server every 5 minutes. But it's only available on Windows. I have it installed on Windows 7 to FTP to the CentOs / Linux server.

But the FTP'ing is basically what I want to eliminate. If everythings done and installed on the server....I wouldn't have to FTP from the desktop anymore.

I heard of things like WineHQ or VMware that should be able to run windows programs on a linux... but I haven't tried yet.

I tried yum install wine , but it appears it's not in our yum directory...plus I got the warning from Putty that I shouldn't install anything on the server since Plesk is already on it.

Just wondering basically the ideology here. Or maybe there's a seperate Plesk program that's more recommended to run basic windows programs on linux?
