    Resolved fail2ban postfix-sasl not working correctly

    I did uninstalled as suggested and did a cleanup by 'rm -r /etc/fail2ban'. After that I re-installed fail2ban and activated all the jails. There is no plesk-sasl jail though and the plesk-sasl.local file which I did see before is not there anymore. I have attached the fail2ban jails page...

    Resolved fail2ban postfix-sasl not working correctly

    Does anybody have the postfix-sasl filter activated? I wonder that I seem to be the only one with the problem as I think that every Linux server with postfix will show the problem. Every day I see IP addresses being blocked by fail2ban for other reasons, but dictionary attacks on postfix do not...

    Resolved fail2ban postfix-sasl not working correctly

    The postfix jail is enabled, the postfix sasl jail isn't. There is a difference in that the postfix filter is named postfix.conf whereas the postfix-sasl filter is named postfix-sasl.local. The jails in jail.d/plesk.conf reference the filters without extension and there is no postfix-sasl entry...

    Resolved fail2ban postfix-sasl not working correctly

    I have enabled fail2ban and most of the jails are working properly. I have also enabled the recidive jail. Alas, I often see messages like this in /var/log/maillog: Apr 24 05:30:10 h2731888 postfix/smtpd[32272]: warning: unknown[203.159.80.233]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: authentication...

    Question why does plesk change the postfix mail log file to /var/log/maillog ?

    Most default log rotations suck (as does the defaults coming with logrotate) I want all my log files rotate by size only, never by date, and I want a certain history. Having my log files with the standard names (i.e mail.log instead of maillog) also works out of the box with logwatch. I like...

    Question why does plesk change the postfix mail log file to /var/log/maillog ?

    Sorry for being not precise enough. I do not want to manage rotation settings for /var/log/maillog. I am looking to change /etc/rsysllog.d/plesk-mail.conf to mail.* -/var/log/mail.log or even remove /etc/rsyslog.d/plesk-mail.conf at all. Then mail logs should be in...

    Question why does plesk change the postfix mail log file to /var/log/maillog ?

    The default mail log file in Ubuntu is /var/log/mail.log which is also configured in /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog Plesk does change the default in /etc/rsyslog.d/plesk-mail.conf to /var/log/maillog. Thus, logrotate does not work without modifying the rsyslog config file. Is there a special reason...

    Question Guide to migrate plesk to the same server after new installation

    Migrating to a new server has some drawbacks though, as it requires domain migration and has hostname and IP related issues. My provider offers daily backup snapshots, so I am quite safe in that I can always revert to a snapshot if something fails dramatically. They also offer a special...

    Question Guide to migrate plesk to the same server after new installation

    Thanks for directing me to "backup" instead of the "migration tool". It was not clear to me that I can restore a backup to a newer version of the operating system. I still wonder if restoring the backup to a new server will keep my imap folders and the let's encrypt certificates intact...
