• 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.

Plesk 12 ProFTPD FTPS (SSL/TLS) Handshake Delay Results in Slow Directory Browsing

pleskpanel

Regular Pleskian
We have been seeing FTPS browsing delays as replicated and resolved in the ProFTPD 1.3.5 bug ticket (http://bugs.proftpd.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4108) which was marked as resolved on 2014-09-24. Will the Plesk package be updating ProFTPD now that the bug has been squashed?

On a side note, mod_delay is turned off in addition to ident/reverse DNS lookups.
 
Plesk has 1.3.5 version of psa-proftpd package now:

# rpm -qi psa-proftpd
Name : psa-proftpd Relocations: (not relocatable)
Version : 1.3.5 Vendor: Parallels

Is it ok for you?
 
Based on our latest investigation into this, all of our fully patched Plesk 12.x servers are running proftpd 1.3.5-cos6.build1200140529.18 so it must not be the original problem that we had thought.

Only one of them (with an identical firewall configuration) seems to have the delayed directory browsing issue using FTPS (it doesn't fail but it takes 5-7 seconds to display the directories) but via normal FTP there is no delay at all. IdentLookups and UseReverseDNS are set to off and passive ports are working fine as normal FTP connections have no delay at all.

Any insight as to why this might be?
