Lately I've been spending a lot of time grok'ing the Postfix logfile (i.e., /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog) and I've been noticing a lot of authentication failures (and even one successful break-in).
Most entries are just a simple pair of log entries that includes the source IP address and then the details of the mailbox name, like this one:
Code:
Aug 12 08:08:18 www postfix/smtpd[4805]: warning: unknown[162.255.86.250]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: authentication failure
Aug 12 08:08:20 www plesk_saslauthd[4434]: failed mail authenticatication attempt for user 'media@example.com' (password len=6)
[Code]....
How are these entries generated? i.e., Why mailbox name given right away some times (like the first example) while - other times - the account name isn't displayed for several seconds - almost ninety seconds in the second example?
Two days ago we have upgrade a Plesk Panel 11.5 to 12.0.18. It have been working properly until today. Lots of mailboxes doesn't work with the error
Jun 24 13:30:12 hosting2 plesk_saslauthd[19704]: No such user 'mailbox@domain.tld' in mail authorization database Jun 24 13:30:12 hosting2 plesk_saslauthd[19704]: failed mail authenticatication attempt for user 'mailbox@domain.tld' (password len=10)
The /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/mail_auth_view show only a few mailboxes. The /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk --with-spam does´t fix the problem.
If we change the password of one of the crashed mailbox, it works until the /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk command is executed.
If we try to clear a new mailbox in one of the domains that doesn't work, we adquire the error "mailmng-outgoing failed"...
I have a VPS with plesk 12 I created an email account with one of my domains and when I try to send emails from this account through webmal of roundcube, I get the following error.: An error has occurred! SMTP Error (250): Authentication failed.
I initially had trouble where everytime i tried to load webmail.domain.tld i would have a DNS error, I've resolved this by correcting the DNS settings on my domain and now i can login to the webmail and recieve emails. Now, whether i use Horde or Roundcube i get this authentication error for my SMTP. I'm very new to this stuff and i'm not sure where my log files are or what the issue could be or even how to fix it.
I update my plesk 11,5 to 12.And I activate (limit control for smtp)After this action the email forwarding fails in all domains of plesk.This is the mail system at host fsyc.org. You can delete your own text from the attached returned message.
I trying to create authentication Key in SSH with plesk 11.5.30 CentOS Linux box...I followed the following KB article to create authentication key. URL...The authentication key not working.
I am using plesk 11.0.9 and I want disable ssl anonymous authentication. A vulnerability exists in SSL communications when clients are allowed to connect using no authentication algorithm.
I have a brandnew server with CENTOS 6.5 Final with Plesk 12.
For some reason unknown i'm not able to configure Postfix as smtp server and accept plain text autentication. It only accept TLS autentication both on port 25 or 587. If i install Qmail everything works without any problem.
I have a new Plesk 11.0.9. #34 server with Centos 6.3 64bit.
I made a few changes in order to be PCI Compliant.
I created a domain and try to send email with no luck.

As you can see from the logs, the pop/imap connection is successful. I login to webmail with the username/password successfully. I can't send from Outlook/thunderbird etc.
Tried to rebuild emails with /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mchk --with-spam but no luck.
I'm currently experiencing a lot of problems, using Horde. Users are not able to log-in due to this error:
Code:
2014-10-09T10:00:54+02:00 EMERG: HORDE Uncaught exception 'Horde_Exception_PushApp' with message 'User xxx@yyy.tld is not authorized for Horde.' in /usr/share/psa-pear/pear/php/Horde/Registry.php:1555 Stack trace: #0 /usr/share/psa-pear/pear/php/Horde/Registry.php(1198): Horde_Registry->pushApp('horde', Array)
[Code] .....
I've already tried re-installing Horde, but without success.
There's an article in your KB, but `/var/lib/php/session` does not exist and `/var/lib/php5/sessions` has the required perms.
I've also tried to set session.save_path to `/var/lib/php5/sessions` in `/etc/psa-webmail/horde/horde/php.ini` and after a restart, sessions are written into that directory. But the problem still exists.
Code: _b|i:1412842564;_r|i:1412864164;horde|a:25:{s:11:"auth/authId";s:13:" xxx@yyy.tld";s:12:"auth/browser";s:110:" Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/38.0.2125.101 Safari/537.36";s:16:"auth/credentials";s:4:" imp";s:15:"auth/remoteAddr";s:15:" my.ip.addr.ess";s:11:"auth/userId";s:13:"
I installed the Google Authenticator extension, and the inevitable happened: my phone died.So now I am left without access to the Plesk panel.How can I disable the authentication in the SQL database, so I can login again?
I just reloaded the OS on our production server and I'm having issues configuring postgres.
the user postgres exists in the system (i.e. 'su postgres' switches me to that user) i attempted to connect to my database 'service_2_3' via CLI:
Code: $ su postgres $ psql service_2_3 and i recieved the following error:
Code: psql: FATAL: IDENT authentication failed for user "postgres@service_2_3" the database is installed on the machine on which i was attempting to connect to it with.
therefore, i edited my pg_hba.conf so that it looks like this:
Code:
# TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only local all all ident sameuser # IPv4 local connections: host all all 127.0.0.1/32 ident sameuser # IPv6 local connections: host all all ::1/128 ident sameuser host all all 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 password

We have a problem with our plesk servers. I executed "/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all" and now the plesk interface shows an error message:

OS: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Plesk version: 12.0.18 Update #53 , last updated at July 7, 2015 06:30 AM. uRL...
It looks like something with Bind9 failed, however i'm not totally sure. I have DNS installed, however its not used. It had to be installed to generate the domain keys for email authentication.My sites still work, however it looks like the DNS option is no long present in Plesk.ow to proceed with the update?
I installed fail2ban via the autoinstaller today. I got a failed install. There is no /etc/init.d/fail2ban file, and no /usr/bin/fail2ban-server.
On the other hand yum-search tells me it's installed:
plesk-fail2ban-configurator.noarch : plesk-specific jails and filters for fail2ban fail2ban.noarch : Scan logfiles and ban ip addresses with too many password failures​
I tried to remove it in autoinstaller:

Initially I was able to connect via FTP. Then all of a sudden I started getting 550 SSL/TLS required on the control channel. Why did it suddenly required SSL/TLS when I did not do anything extra?
Now when I'm trying to connect via FTPES using FileZilla (tried both active and passive) on Linux Mint Debian, I'm getting the error below. I'm really stumped. I have tried to Allow incoming from all on port 49152-65534/tcp via Plesk firewall, but still no go.
The worst thing now is, I can't even get FTP to work anymore. Of course I would prefer to have TLS working.

I am using Plesk 12.0.18 Update #51 on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS.
I want to restore a single Domain from Plesk GUI but it failed:

Centos6.6 x86_64 Minimal install + Plesk12 installation completed without problem.
However when I logged into Plesk Panel i get this message.

Everything seems to work but i would like to have it enabled for performance reasons, when i check it # /etc/init.d/nginx status nginx is stopped
Then I try to start it manually /etc/init.d/nginx start Not starting nginx as it is disabled in config
then i try to force it /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/nginxmng --enable
