Plesk 11.x / Linux :: Multiple IP Addresses And Mail Configuration
Jun 16, 2014
I am running a VPS through 123-REG, Plesk version 11.0.9 with CentOS 6.4
I host 3 websites of my own (with 14 mail accounts)
4 websites for clients (with 10 mail accounts)
7 websites for clients (with 0 mail accounts)
The problem I have had in the last 2 weeks is that the server has been compromised once again by spammers.
2 weeks ago we had another instance and the support was even worse than before, I decided that the best way forward after irradicating the problem and correcting the source, and in the interest of each of my clients I decided to asign each client with their own IP address in the vain hope that if one client account is compromised the others will not be affected, 123-REG agreed that this is a solid solution so I purchased 5 additional IP addresses for the clients I host mail accounts for, (all of the said addresses were blacklisted when I was given them!!!) the reverse DNS was not set up correctly, and couldn't be through their control panel and some didn't match the SMTP banners, then I found out through them that the mail was still sent out through the Primary IP address anyway so if one client gets blacklisted they all still do.
Now they tell me that I can in fact configure Plesk to use each IP address for each client exclusively and they sent me a link to a support article that doesn't actually tell me how to do it.
I can do the following so far:
Log into puTTY and use the command: nano /etc/postfix/master.cf
Find the "smtp" record referenced in the article [URL]
1.1.1.1- unix - n n - - smtp -o smtp_bind_address=1.1.1.1 -o smtp_bind_address6= -o smtp_address_preference=ipv4
2.2.2.2- unix - n n - - smtp -o smtp_bind_address=2.2.2.2 -o smtp_bind_address6= -o smtp_address_preference=ipv4
although mine looks like the one below:
1.1.1.1- unix - n n - - smtp -o smtp_bind_address=1.1.1.1 -o smtp_b$
Is there something missing from the entry I have?
Assuming that 1.1.1.1 = the relevant IP Address for the client do I need to create an entry for each of my IP addresses?
Do I need to do anything with SMTP banners? If so how do I do it, and what do I need to do?
The article also mentions the default settings being restored each time you reconfigure mail settings and to consider a scheduled task, does that mean each time I set up a new mail account or a new client as I assume that I will need to repeat these steps in that case anyway, mainly because they will have a unique IP address that needs to be set up.

I m trying to get the feature "Outgoing Mail from Exclusive IP Addresses" working, as with an updated Postfix configuration the menu entry for this functions does not appear anymore.
Maybe i am missing something in my configuration that tells Plesk to not show it anymore.
Plesk 12 - fresh installation on Debian Wheezy.
We only changed main.cfnd here is the configuration file (please note that the formatting was a bit corrupted by the plesk panel ):
Code:
alias_database= hash:/etc/aliases
alias_maps= hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/var/spool/postfix/plesk/aliases
append_dot_mydomain= no
biff= no
disable_vrfy_command = yes
header_checks= regexp:/etc/postfix/header_checks
mailbox_size_limit= 0
[Code] ....

Q: Does one need to have more than one ISP (outside) static IP address to host its own mail and web server?
Or will one static IP with port forwarding to two different machines (one mail and other web server) be good enough?
What would happen if one wants to host two websites on one machine (web server) and have webmail to access emails (presumably via port 80) on another (mail server)?
My only concern is I guess my ASA 5505 won't support more than one assigned static IP or am I wrong?

The VPS has 16 domains running on it, all with different web addresses and their own email accounts etc.
It's a Linux server and is running postfix for the mail. The main website on this domain has the mail service disabled because we have an exchange service on our own server here in the building where we work. Now when anyone on any of our domains on the VPS try to email us at 'maincompany.com' they get the following error message:
This is the mail system at host <vps address>.
Your message could not be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below.
For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster.
If you do so, please include this problem report. You can delete your own text from the attached returned message.
The mail system
<stevew@maincompany.com>: mail for maincompany.com loops back to myself...

Is there a command, a part from

to list only unsecure password?

I have two domains as virtual hosts on same IP address.
I am getting certificate error for the second domain when I try to check email (using MS Outlook). I can't permanently "accept" certificate, it complains again and again. Certuficate I created and self signed for imap.domain1.com, but the second email server is imap.domain2.com, so it complains.
How do I set separate email certificates for two domains? Is it possible at all?

I have a Problem with my VHosts on one of two IP addresses. One IP is dedicated and works well
The other IP is shared. Since two days every call to one of the websites of this share ip goes to the Plesk Default Website. I tried to reconfigure single sites and all sites (/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all), nothing works and restarting apache shows some warnings.
apache2ctl -S shows the following lines:
Code:
[Mon Dec 01 19:56:08 2014] [warn] VirtualHost 85.214.41.141:7080 overlaps with VirtualHost 85.214.41.141:7080, the first has precedence, perhaps you need a NameVirtualHost directive
[Mon Dec 01 19:56:08 2014] [warn] VirtualHost 85.214.41.141:7081 overlaps with VirtualHost 85.214.41.141:7081, the first has precedence, perhaps you need a NameVirtualHost directive
[Code] ....
In an other thread I found a possible solution for the overlapping vhosts. The problem there seems to be a missing ssl-certificate and that matches with the situation on my server. After copying any other certificate-file as the one with the missing filename the apache starts without any warnings, but after that all websites (the sites from the dedicated ip too) only shows the apache default site ("it works"). I Tried to reconfigure single sites and all sites (/usr/local/psa/admin/bin/httpdmng --reconfigure-all), nothing works.
The server is hosted by STRATO, so there are daily backups. I turned back one week (the problem exists since two days). Then for some hours all works fine but suddenly all the sites on the ip 85.214.41.141 get broken again and shows only plesks default page.

I need to listen to two IP addresses supporting many domains.
It the pass we achieve this on the Data Centre firewall. This option is no longer available.
Traffic is been presented to Plesk 12.0.18 on
Eth0 – 192.168.0.2
Eth1 – 192.168.0.12
I set up 192.168.0.2 – all is working well
I installed NGINX – all is well and the websites are running faster.
Normally I would try to listen on two IP address in Apache. This option I could not get working as Plesk creates the Apache configuration files from the information entered through the panels. This in turn over rights any manual changes to the Apache configuration files.
I understand that I could use NGINX to achieve this. Is this correct how is it achieved?

We want to send a newsletter email for all the company employees, we are using doppler because of a location and language thing (based in Argentina where an important part of the company operation is located), so when we are ready to send the newsletter it says that all recipients are bouncing, asked to droppler support and they say the problem comes from plesk, because it needs to have their ip addresses into the whitelist.
So, went to plesk, selected the domain where the bounced email addresses are (dlbgroup.com) but from there I don't know where to go, I don't want to do something wrong or delete something accidentally, so where to upload this CSV file to the right whitelist place.

I have installed a new SSL cert and tried to assign it to an IP address.
Plesk says "Information: The properties of the IP address .... were changed."
But it seems the SSL cert was not changed.
Running in mysql the following query
select d.name from domains d inner join hosting h on h.dom_id = d.id where h.certificate_id = <id of new cert>;
gives:
Empty set (0.00 sec)
I changed the cert for the IP where all my domains are so it should show the domains using that IP/cert. Running the query using the ID of the old cert lists all the domains on that IP/cert.

Have been hosting with Site5 for the last few years, and have been very happy. I have a number of websites, it's easy for me to add another one (the domain points to a subfolder but the address acts like a 'real' domain if you type it in), they have everything I need and are cheap.
The downside is all my sites share an IP address. I'm either looking for some hosting at a few dollars a month tops (shared is fine) with PHP / MySQL, or an account that give me the ability to add as many domains as I'd like, and if necessary, give them all unique IP addresses.
Basically, I'm just looking to protect myself from anyone doing a reverse IP check on the domains. I suppose the ideal situation would be one where I could control / see stats for all my sites through one control panel, and just have the ability to buy another IP address when needed, and if I don't need to, share one IP with multiple sites...
I guess worst comes to worst, some cheap but reliable hosting (with someone that isn't going to mess me around or fold in 6 months time) where I'm going to share an IP with another few hundred sites would be acceptable...

I've never fully understood what's the need for more than one IP address? I mean, you need one to set-up the nameservers and all, but why do you need more than one?

What are the benefits of having a host provide more than 1 IP address? I'm going to jump the "shared" ship and hopping on a VPS for the first time.
I have several sites, one of which gets about 1k hits a day. The others, not so much, but it is vital that the others don't get hammered and slow down. Will having the one site with more traffic on one IP, and the others on another, insure that they won't bog down?

I just installed Plesk 11.0.9 Update #8 on a CentOS Linux Server and found a new FTP-server running and listening on port 21. I wanted to deactivate it or at least change the port number to anything else. But in the config file /etc/xinetd.d/ftp_psa there is a comment:
#DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE BECAUSE IT WAS GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY,
#SO ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST AFTER YOU UPGRADE PARALLELS PLESK PANEL.
So I can't deactivate the FTP-server with the line "disable = yes" because the default file is restored after a while (I can't pinpoint the event when it happened). In the Plesk frontend I can't see any possibility to deactivate the server or change the port.
In the file above, there is mentioned another config file "server_args = -c /etc/proftpd.conf" but changes in that file are ignored for whatever reason. There I changed the port number but without success. It's still listening on 21 even if the file says otherwise.

I have two sites that register a high amount to SMTP traffic. Both sited have only forwarding email addresses.
Do forwarding addresses accumulate SMTP traffic on the log?
Also, if a forwarding email is created without a mailbox is it necessary to add a password so that "others" cannot use the blank SMTP server to send email out?
