  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    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. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Issue Ubuntu 20.04 LTS + Plesk Obsidian Firewall Ext. says: iptables is needed...

Hello,

I installed (Hosted by Hetzner) Ubuntu 20.04 LTS + Plesk Obsidian Web Pro Edition. I installed the Plesk Firewall xetension and open the Plesk Firewal:
Error: The Firewall module requires Iptables to be installed. Please install the Iptables package from your OS vendor.

Then I read, Ubuntu 20.04 prefers nftables and not anymore iptables. Is that right?

At this point I have to ask, what is the prefered way to come up to a runing Plesk Firewall Extension with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS? (fresh server installation)

At the distribution/Plesk paket from Hetzner (Plesk Obsidian+Ubuntu 20.04 LTS) is iptables, nftables or ufw not pre-installed - what I have to install and what way to proper work with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS AND Plesk Obsidian Firewall Extension?

Best regards

You will have to do: apt install netfilter-persistent iptables-persistent

AFAIK the Plesk firewall extension only works with iptables, not with nftables.
