  • 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.

Security breach or just ignorance?

I am moving a server from a testing environment to an active e-commerce server and while buttoning it down I noticed a couple things that give me a slight alarm. The other day I was provisioning a second hard drive and I added a line in the /etc/mtab file. Today when I went back into that file there were a couple new commands that I didn't add, and frankly I don't know if they are supposed to be there or not. Here's the file:

/dev/sda3 / ext3 rw,usrquota 0 0
/dev/proc /proc proc rw 0 0
/dev/sys /sys sysfs rw 0 0
/dev/devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/sda1 /boot ext3 rw 0 0
/dev/shm /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0
/dev/sdb /mnt/disk2 ext3 rw
none /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw 0 0
/proc /var/named/run-root/proc none rw,bind 0 0

The last two lines are the new ones... Any thoughts or comments would be greatly appreciated!!
