  • 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.

Question Plesk Backup Manager auto-creates SSH keys

Hangover2

Regular Pleskian
Server operating system version
Debian 10.13
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.49 Update 2
Hello,

on some of our Plesk servers we have a strange behavior of the Plesk Backup Manager.
If a subscription is bound to a chrooted shell or SSH access is even forbidden, a backup (e.g. only configuration) will create the .ssh directory in the subscription including SSH keys (id_rsa + id_rsa.pub).

Is there a reason why the SSH keys are auto-generated?

At the moment we still investigating which plugin or configuration does trigger this behavior as we do not see it on all of our Plesk servers.
