  • 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.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

FTP Secure and FireFTP

I'm trying to access my server over FTP secure and the fireFTP add-on for Firefox v22. Has anyone succeeded? I'm confused by the number of options.

In fireFTP (v.2.0.16), there are four options for secure FTP (1) Auth TLS (port 21) (2) Auth SSL (port 21) (3) Implicit SSL (port 990) (4) SFTP (port 22). The terminal log shows that most of these connect successfully, but there is no directory listing, and I see: PBSZ 0. I'm probably missing something obvious.
 
Is there a way to enable Secure FTP (or similar) without having to force all my customers to buy an SSL certificate? I just want to prevent passwords being transmitted in the clear.

Added 15 Mar 2014: I guess I could buy an SSL certificate for my server IP address, and get all my customers to FTP through the IP address?

Hi,

SSL Certificates are not possible for IPs :)
But you could get an SSL certificate for your server FQDN and then tell your customers to use that as a Host?

Regards,
Kristian
