  • 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.

Can I update the bind package from the CentOS repo?

New Pleskian
This is my first post to the parallels forum, so please be patient with me :)

I am running Plesk 8.6.0 on a CentOS release 5.2 (Final).

The problem is that named (bind) has this strange behavior: It restarts at some intervals (this is OK), but sometimes does not start again, without leaving any error messages:

...
...
messages:Feb 3 17:33:38 xxx named[5793]: zone xxxx.gr/IN: loaded serial 2009112001
messages:Feb 3 17:33:38 xxx named[5793]: zone xxxgr/IN: loaded serial 2010012102

messages:Feb 3 17:33:47 xxx named[5793]: no longer listening on xxxx#53
messages:Feb 3 17:33:47 xxx named[5793]: exiting

Normally, after reloading the zones, it should restart. Afterwards, when I saw that it is down, I just started it from the panel and all was working again.

Bind version is
Version : 9.3.4
Release : 6.0.2.P1.el5_2
Repo : installed

and the CentOS repo has:

Available Packages
Version : 9.3.6
Release : 4.P1.el5_4.2
Repo : updates


So I have two questions: If I upgrade my bind, will I have problem with the Plesk version I'm running?
And the same question in general: The versions of plesk require specific package versions? Because I'm seeing many updates from yum that I fear upgrading in order not to break Plesk...

Thanks!
Giorgos
