  • 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.

FTP folder disappeared overnight

Not sure if plesk did this or not. I had a client who needed a seperate FTP site/directory from the one built into plesk. I did not want to give them a seperate FTP site with a new IP address. So instead, I went into the directory where plesk keeps the FTP folders for the default shared FTP address. On our system, this is F:\inetpub\vhosts\servers\4777

Under the 4777 folder, i created a new directory with the same name as the new FTP login i was giving the client. The client was able to use the new login and the new directory without issue for about a week. Now suddenly, this folder is gone and the FTP login quit working. I assume all his uploaded files are gone. It seems strange, but the only thing i could think of was that plesk erased that folder because it was created outside of plesk. Maybe i was doing this the wrong way.

THanks for any help you can provide.
