  • 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.

How to Configure Anonymous access for a IIS domain and avoid plesk resetting it

Dear Sir,

We want to create a plesk domain called "exampledomain.com" and plesk automated process creates with anonymous account IUSR_exampledomain as showed in attached capture "anonymous_access_configuration_created_by_plesk.JPG".

We need to change anonymous access configuration for this particular domain to the general IUSR_machinenameaccount as showed in attached capture "anonymous_access_configuration_manually_modified.JPG".

After changing it in IIS Manager everything works well for a period of time (hours) and then domain returns to initial anonymous configuration made by plesk.

We have seen that there is a command called "websrvmng.exe --update-anon-password-all" that perhaps plesk system execute periodically and makes config returns to initial state losing manual changes.

Is there a way to configure anonymous access for a plesk IIS domain making changes permanent? We also have seen a command called "websrvmng.exe --configure-anonymous-access" but didn't found any documentation about syntax or if it's really made to acomplish this task.

Looking for your help, many thanks in advance.
Raimon
