[Pdns-users] TXT record length

[Paul J. Smith]

Hi (again),

One other requirement I have is for long TXT records for some SPF and domainkeys records.  These can get very long.  They currently exceed the 250 characters in a few cases.  I've looked at the mysql db schema on the mysql backup and I think the TXT type is 255 chars or thereabouts.  Is there any problem in extending this?  Has anyone done it?  The problem we have is that there are some domainkeys and spf records that currently exceed this by a fair bit, so we need a longer TXT field.

Thanks,

Paul
