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

Moving from Ensim and don't understand a thing....

We just installed an evaluation of 7.5 for Windows after using the (frankly horrendous) Ensim 4.0. While Ensim was dreadful, it was pretty easy to pick up and use. We are a simple webhosting company and I just don't get a few things even after reading all the documentation... if someone would be kind enough to give me the benefit of their experience in dealing with my stupid questions below I would be eternally grateful....

- whats the difference between a client account and a domain account? I'm assuming "clients" are resellers and "domain accounts" are the actual end users? We dont have resellers - just end user clients
- when logged in as a domain user, is it possible to get rid of a lot of the icons (even the greyed out icons, we specialise in hosting for first timers and all these icons will just put them off!) We really just want to show them mail, applications and the simple stuff
- we have a full evaluation key with all the applications enabled, the sw-soft website talks about a gallery (photo gallery) but I just dont see that in the list of applications users can add?

Apologies in advance if these are REALLY stupid questions. Overall I think we could really like Plesk 7.5 - if only we understood what was going on!!

If you dont have any resallers just make one account for your self and setup domains under there.

No this is not posible.
