• Please be aware: Kaspersky Anti-Virus has been deprecated
    With the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.64, "Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Servers" will be automatically removed from the servers it is installed on. We recommend that you migrate to Sophos Anti-Virus for Servers.
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.
  • We’re working on enhancing the Monitoring feature in Plesk, and we could really use your expertise! If you’re open to sharing your experiences with server and website monitoring or providing feedback, we’d love to have a one-hour online meeting with you.

Question Lots of DNS queries

SalvadorS

Regular Pleskian
Hello,

We have some servers with Plesk onyx. Per server we have a dns, for example the DNS of server2.domain.com is ns2.domain.com

When we host a domain in server5.domain.com we use ns5.domain.com

The problem is, if we check the /var/log/syslog of all the servers we see a lot of traffic like this:

for example in server32.domain.org

So, is there any way to stop this DNS queries through all the servers?
