• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

DNS Different Servers for Mail and Web

Hi all,

Having a real spot of bother here, I'm new to DNS and it's rather confusing.

I would like to host email and webmail on my server (Server1) but redirect all web traffic to another server (Server 2).

This is what I have changed the DNS records to, as per below:

Server1 IP Addres PTR domain.com
domain.com. MX (10) mail.domain.com.
domain.com. NS ns.domain.com.
ftp.domain.com. CNAME domain.com.
lists.domain.com. CNAME domain.com.
mail.domain.com. A Server1 IP Address
ns.domain.com. A Server1 IP Address
webmail.domain.com. A Server1 IP Address
www.domain.com. A Server2 IP Address

I am not convinced it is working as when I do a DNS Checker Report (http://www.dnsreport.com/) it shows me Server1 IP Address for www record!? Any ideas would be muchly appreciated?

Many thanks for any help you can provide.. . .

Philippe
