• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

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
