TwitterHi there!
I am currently trying to install SSLH (http://www.rutschle.net/tech/sslh.shtml) in order to be able to have HTTPS/SSL and SSH on 443. I used to have this on my old server without PLESK and things were easy because SSLH just installs on Debian via apt and afterwards a simple change in ports.conf of apache made it possible to bind it to localhost:443.
Currently, I have Plesk 11.5 and it's installed with the reverse nginx proxy. Here, I would need to change the nginx config in order to change it's listening-haibts.
A) Has anyone experience with this combination and know's if it's working or what to do in order to get it running?
B) Is there any way in Plesk to configure the nginx config files? I know that are auto-generated (since it says so in the header of the file) but I can't find any options in Plesk Control Panel to make so adjustments (e.g. Listen directive, Port Number, Host etc). This would be necessary for the general server.conf and especially the webmail.conf since there's the Listen :443 directive.
C) I was thinking of removing nginx reverse proxy since I'm not really sure if there's a performance benefit at all on my case and also to switch to apache in order to possibly solve this SSLH problem. If I disable it in "Plesk Control Panel > Service Management" what happens to the vhosts that were created before by nginx? (I don't want to recreate all the settings I've made). Does Plesk automatically switch to apache?
I found http://kb.parallels.com/en/114705 and also checked the admin-manual but I want to be sure what this does.
Thanks and best regards!
