Question

How to track file changes on a Plesk for Linux server?

Answer

Currently, there is no such functionality in Plesk.

If you would like to see this feature in Plesk, please vote for it on Plesk UserVoice:

 

To track who or what modifies/deletes files on a system, use the OS "audit" utility.

For more information about this utility and its configuration, see:

    The usage of auditd , a tool supported by Plesk, is not explained.

     

    If I understand correctly, activation is done via SSH CLI:

    # auditd -l -s enable
     
     
    However, it's not explained how to use audit rules, and how to track the log.

    For example:
