  • 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 Slave DNS Server - Separate Folder For Zone Files?

LaneP

New Pleskian
Hi all

We've provisioned a new instance of Plesk and installed the Slave DNS Manager extension. We've configured a slave DNS server and confirmed the sync is working between the two. So far, so good.

On the Slave DNS server we would like to have a separate folder for the zone files from Plesk. It's acting as a slave for other servers and we want to quickly identify the origin of the zone file using separate folders.

Current Folder: /var/named
New Folder: /var/named/slaves_plesk

Does anyone know of a way to do this?

Thank you kindly.
 
Hi LaneP,

I have seen a source code of Slave DNS Manager (plesk/ext-slave-dns-manager), looks like if you change 'file \\\"{$domain}\\\"' to something with a directory, it should work; but be careful, it is your own risk :)

If you create a good solution with the ability to configure directory through GUI, do not hesitate to create a pull request in GitHub.
