Hello again, first of all I would like to thanks all you members because yesterday you really helped me by providing information about the Server Management with Plesk. But I still need to know something more. Today I am here to ask you about the Firewall and VPN Module in Plesk. I am hoping that you members will continue to help me. Also need to know something about an integrated memory.
With the firewall module to configure the built-in packet filter. Included is a fairly generous set of rules laid out, the first allowed access to all necessary service provision. The existing rules can be adjusted by the user delete arbitrary, or complement. The approach may also be limited to any IP ranges. I am sure that you will be satisfied with today's information also. ;) :P
New rules to control inbound, outbound or forwarded traffic on any port. The module for encrypted Internet connections based on the OpenVPN solution OpenSSL for encryption and virtual TUN / TAP driver for the tunneling begins. There can be comfortably set up, but allows only one concurrent connection. In the test confidently and smoothly Plesk assumes the management of the installed on the test computer Postfix MTAs. As a protection against spam can own black and white lists are defined. Plesk also supports the Sender Policy Framework (SPF) and the Mail Abuse Prevention System (MAPS).
If still unsolicited commercial emails are left, makes the integrated as a separate module SpamAssassin them farewell. The mail size can be limited, as is the frequency of POP3 views. Very important: the mailboxes are no easy victim for this cracker tries to Plesk on request, the passwords of registered users on the system to crack. New in this version is to manage the message queue. This allows the Qmail message queue directly from Plesk administration. This is especially helpful in the fight against spam. This feature is under server/message queue to find mail.Quote:

Especially the many details make the administrator the daily work. An example: If the firewall is slightly changed rules, so the new rules must saved, but just not enabled. To forget that is made at the next call to the appropriate configuration page from a visual alert attention. Another example: When changing a firewall rule to apply a new IP address in the list of permitted sources. After entering the number sequence you have to click. Just click OK when you want to leave. If the program language once converted, the work is with the clear admin interface even easier by hand. The clear division, the restriction to a few main points in the left navigation bar and the icons for quick access to each function makes the management of a Plesk server, even for less experienced users a breeze. It is necessary, but not dispensed with advanced features.
About so-called option-packs can be more exotic services Plesk manage, including Tomcat Server for Java applets or Cold Fusion support. Of course also includes the standard functions, such as the setting storage space limits for web content and e-mails to the power spectrum. The integrated user management allows you to define any login name. Plesk is also able to protect certain web directories by an arbitrary access password and create accounts for authorized users. Since all steps are successively dealt with building, feels led the user as an assistant by the individual masks. Practical: Most of the options is deposited with tool-tip help, what makes a good look at the online help in most cases unnecessary.
