  • 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.

Resolved Disable remote access on MongoDB using Docker

PiTiNiNjA

New Pleskian
Hello

I installed MongoDB with Docker on my Plesk server. It allows remote connections by default, and I would like to change that.

Usually I disable remote access by setting bind_ip to 127.0.0.1 in the mongodb.conf file, but I can't find any / don't know how to use configuration file with Docker.

I read you can add a --bind_ip 127.0.0.1 argument to the Docker run command but according to this thread it is not possible on Plesk.

So how can I disable remote access?

Thank you for your time!
 
You should do this at system firewall level. If you're using iptables, then your rule should look something like "iptables -A INPUT -s 15.15.15.51...". If you're using Plesk Firewall, then login to Plesk, go to Tools and Settings - Firewall - Modify Plesk Firewall Rules - Add custom rule - whitelist only internal IP.
 
Thanks for your time CaptainHook.

I ended up installing MongoDB without Docker.

However, blocking any calls on the MongoDB port in the firewall should indeed be a good solution.

Hopefully it will help someone in the future!
