Happy to share! Here's our CrowdSec setup for Plesk: Note on Version We're using the open-source version of CrowdSec, which is why whitelist management is manual (the paid version offers centralized whitelist management across servers). We also keep fail2ban enabled and running alongside...

Thank you all for your input! I wanted to share what we've implemented that's been working well for us: CrowdSec DeploymentWe rolled out CrowdSec across all our Plesk servers with specific WordPress detection scenarios. So far, it's been quite effective at blocking attacks before they consume...

Hi everyone, I'm managing around 40 Plesk servers with multiple domains per server belonging to different customers and developers. I'm struggling to keep up with bots and brute-force attempts constantly hammering wp-login.php, xmlrpc.php, and similar endpoints. Current Setup: Fail2ban with...

Hi everyone, For compatibility reasons, I need to run a site using PHP 7.3 FPM on a new AlmaLinux 9 server. However, I’ve noticed that while PHP 7.0 and 7.4 are available for installation, PHP 7.3 is not. Is there any “clean” way to install PHP 7.3 FPM on AlmaLinux 9? Preferably, I’d like to...

How do I change FTP service parameters in AlmaLinux 9? In CentOS 7, I used to edit the /etc/xinetd.conf file. However, this file seems to be missing in AlmaLinux 9. I checked /etc/proftpd.conf, and the ServerType is still set to inetd (ServerType = inetd), but I can’t find xinetd or inetd...

Hi, I've been following the guide titled "How to Add a Custom PHP Version in Plesk for Linux." Everything was going smoothly until I reached the step to register the PHP handler. I encountered an error that I can't seem to resolve: Unable to register the PHP handler: php-fpm-5.6.38: service...

Yes, I finally realized that it cannot be done if the Plesk Firewall is enabled. The way you suggest the best one. However I ended up doing it with a cron script because I like to keep all my Plesk servers with a the same manegement procedures. Thanks!

Thank you for the suggestion. This technique looks cool but I'm afraid that if I persist the iptables rules and restore them this would certainly overwrite the iptables rules generated by Plesk. The Plesk firewall creates a .sh file that rewrites all the iptables config each time it is applied...

I'm afraid that the custom rule I need to add (NAT, post routing, masquerade) cannot be created using the Plesk Firewall GUI (or at least I don't se how).

I need to make a custop iptables rule persistent so that I can enable our docker containers to access Internet. This is the rule: But this rule is lost everytime I make a change using the Plesk Firewall GUI. How can I make this rule persistent? I've seen post talking about...
