• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is 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.

Installing snort inline

madadam

Basic Pleskian
Has anyone had any success or can anyone offer advice on installing snort in inline mode on a server running Plesk 8.2 with the firewall module?

From the snort docs:

In order for Snort Inline to work properly, you must download and compile the iptables code to include ``make install-devel'' (http://www.iptables.org). This will install the libipq library that allows Snort Inline to interface with iptables. Also, you must build and install LibNet, which is available from http://www.packetfactory.net.

iptables 1.3.0-2 is installed with Plesk 8.2.1, but is LibNet / snort compatible with the Plesk firewall module? Are there any known issues?
 
The PSA firewall overwrites your firewall options with its own, I would highly recomend not using it if you intend on using programs that manipulate iptables.
