  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Secondary DNS in Plesk 11

Guest
Is there a supported & documented way of providing secondary DNS not on the Plesk 11 box? We are a Plesk 9/Expand shop utilizing centralized DNS, and it doesn't appear that we can do something similar in Plesk 11.

We could roll our own scripts, but we would prefer a supported solution.

Thanks!
 
There is no solution shipped by Parallels with Plesk, but your options could be:
1) use Plesk with PBAs solution - it has embedded support for secondary DNS (similar to what Expand did)
2) code a simple script based on Plesk event handlers - i.e. listen for all added/removed domains and add slave zone in your secondary DNS. It seems quite common approach.
