• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The Horde webmail has been deprecated. Its complete removal is scheduled for April 2025. For details and recommended actions, see the Feature and Deprecation Plan.

Resolved SSH without BIND

Koen Verbruggen

Basic Pleskian
I am using my providers DNS service for my VPS so no need for BIND I guess.

After removing BIND and restarting the server I was not able to login using SSH. Seems like sshd needs BIND to work. Restoring a backup solved the problem.
Is there a way to configure my CentOs to work without BIND?
 
Hi Koen Verbruggen,

so no need for BIND I guess.
Several service depend on the Plesk's DNS server and you will experience issues/errors/problems, if you resist on leaving out this component on your server. Pls. note, that even that you use an external DNS - service, you should still install all basic Plesk components, to profit from all possible Plesk options. They might "waste" some space on your hardware, from your point of view, but is this really worth not to be able to use all Plesk functionalities?

I was not aware of other services needing BIND. No problem keeping it up and running then!Thanks for the response
