  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Question SMB/Samba on Plesk?

VojkanC

Basic Pleskian
Is it possible to create a shared folder on Plesk over SMB protocol that would be accessible to Windows Desktop users over "Add a network location" option?

I have managed to create one over FTP, but not sure if it is possible to do this over SMB/Samba.
 
Why do you want SMB? I find it very resource intensive and you don't have any preinstalled panel for it. SSHFS might be a better fit and you can access and mount it in Windows. From the Plesk side you need only SFTP access with /bin/bash shell or /bin/bash (chrooted).

For Windows SSHFS please see How To Use SSHFS On Windows — Peter Girnus
