PowerShell 3: Add multistring TXT record to DNS

Hi,
I have been working on a PS script for Windows 2012 to create DNS records for AirPrint services. I can get SRV, PTR records created fine. I am having a bit of trouble with TXT records though.
I am using the following command to create a TXT record:
$TXTData = "line1`r`nline2`r`nline3"
Add-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName testdomain.internal -
Name MyNewTXTRecord -Txt -DescriptiveText $TXTData
This works fine and creates a record with multiple lines in it.
There are 2 problems. If the length of TXTData is greater than 255 characters then PS won't process the command. I know each string in a TXT record can only be 255 chars long, but there can be multiple strings. The `r`n is creating the multiple strings.
The second, is that if I run a command to retrieve that same record, I only ever get the contents of the first string. So, the code below only gives me 'line1'. This could be a formatting thing, but I just can't seem to see the rest of the record.
$record = Get-DNSServerResourceRecord -ZoneName testdomain.internal -Name MyNewTXTRecord
$record.recorddata
The big issue is the creation of the records. I'm a bit lost, so any ideas?
Cheers
Craig.

  • TXT records in mavericks server

    I am trying to create a TXT DNS record in Server 3.02. I have read the docs and followed the steps in there. They state that creating a service record is the way to create a TXT record, but no matter how many times I try no record is ever created!
    Has anyone tried this in Server? Is there a way I can just go the the Command Line and modify a file? If so (and I'm sure you can), which file is 'managed' by the DNSsection of Server?

    If you use Server.app, follow these steps:
    1:  Select DNS from the list of services
    2:  Click the Gear action button and select "Show All Records"
    3:  Press the Plus button (which is now a menu) and select Add Machine Record
    4:  Complete the fields, adding your TXT value in the Text box.
    This will add the TXT record next to the A record and the values will look like this in the zone file:
    happy.carbontechnologies.com.         10800 IN A        172.16.0.254
                                                                10800 IN TXT      "hello"
    If you want to manually add these, then look in /Library/Server/named for your zone files.  Be mindful that modification outside Server.app may result in odd behaviors.

  • Adding AAAA records to DNS manually (Server Manager don't let you add them)

    Using the following webpage http://www.isi.edu/~bmanning/v6DNS.html#named.conf I have been able to get IPv6 name resolution setup, so that clients will use IPv6 for connecting to my server on the LAN when possible (e.g. Mail, iChat, Web).
    This is working well, and the records also display in Server Manager. I have tested add/remove/update to existing records in DNS to make sure the manually added AAAA records don't get wiped out, and they don't .
    NOTE: Put AAAA records above A records. Not sure why, but this prevented a few problems I initially had.
    I haven't had a go at making a reverse lookup zone yet for IPv6, but if/when I do, I shall post here.
    Below is a before -> after of the following files I had to edit, using nano under sudo in Terminal:
    Zone name: test.com
    File: /var/named/zones/db.test.com.zone.apple

    Tony,
    Be aware that your ;SERIAL directive MUST change if you made changes to the file.
    The <serial-number> directive is a numerical value incremented every time the zone file is altered to indicate it is time for named to reload the zone.
    I do not know for sure, but this might be why the data has not been wiped out or otherwise modified by Named or might have caused or is hiding some of the difficulty you experienced.

  • SBS 2011 Make TXT record visible in DNS

    After creating a TXT record in my domain under my domainname.local in an effort to qualify for the dig lookup by GoDaddy, the Dig cannot see the TXT record.   To create TXT record, I right click DomainName.local and select "Other New Records",
    choose TXT and name the record DZC and give it the text value as indicated by GoDaddy.  What needs to happen for that record to show up in a DNS lookup?

  • How do I create a TXT record?

    I'm trying to figure out how to create a TXT record on OS X Server 4's DNS server.  Specifically for the Caching service's multiple public IP address requirements.  I'm, of course, using OS X Server's DNS implementation, but see no definitive method for creating TXT records.  I see there is a Text field for most record types, but usage is confusing at best.  Why would Apple choose not to implement TXT records, when this is a requirement of functionality for other supported services?  Not to mention, a good DNS implementation needs to have TXT record support.  Achieving this is trivial on Linux/Unix or Windows, but I can't even find reference to the BIND configuration file for Server 4, and it is no longer in the /var/named/ directory.
    Also, if anyone can point me to any documentation covering these services in detail, that would also be appreciated.
      -- Mike

    Thanks for the reply,
    I actually found the "named" directory just before reading this, and was able to edit the respective zone file, like a standard BIND configuration file.  I understand that Server.app will create a TXT record using the inheritance of the A record label, when using the Text field of the new A record dialog box.  However, this will not suffice if you need to create a TXT record starting with an underscore (_), as is required by Apple's own Caching service, when using different public IPs for clients.  Go ahead and try to make a TXT record entry for "_aaplcache._tcp", with the Server.app GUI and let me know how it goes...I'll answer that for you; "Not well, Mike."  This could likely function correctly if Apple implemented RFC 2181, in Server.app's GUI.  This expands the character set allowed for DNS names, stating that any binary string may be utilized for DNS labels.  Luckily, Apple implements BIND correctly, and serves the TXT entry when queried.  It also appears to leave the zone file intact when modifying other entries with the GUI.  The Server.app GUI does not parse the manually created TXT record however, and thus must be modified and maintained by hand.

  • Txt record for exchange organization

    Hi,
    I am searching on how to get information and how to correctly create txt record in the external DNS to prevent mail spoofing for my accepted domains

    Mashhour Faraj

    Hi,
    You can create a TXT record by using DNS Manager on a server running Windows Server 2008 that has the DNS server role installed. Also, you can use the DNSCmd command to create a TXT record.
    For more information, here is an article for your reference:

  • How do I add a txt file to read from in the following script

    First thanks for the help, PS newbie. 
    I need to add a txt file that has the Exchange aliases listed to the below file. So if the .txt file is sitting in c:\temp\readme.txt how do I incorporate into the following script. Given, I only want the outcome to read from only the txt file. 
    $mailboxes = Get-Mailbox -RecipientTypeDetails UserMailbox
    ForEach ($mailbox in $mailboxes) {
      $FilePath = "\\server\folder\" + $mailbox.PrimarySmtpAddress.Local + "@" + $mailbox.PrimarySmtpAddress.Domain + ".pst"
      New-MailboxExportRequest -mailbox $mailbox -FilePath $FilePath
    Thank you for your time. 
    Chris

    Thank you - 
    You're welcome.
    I need to make sure that when the user from the list is exported to .pst it is named with their primary smtp address? Will the above code do so?
    No, it won't. This adjustment will take that into account:
    $aliasList = Get-Content .\aliasList.txt
    foreach ($alias in $aliasList) {
    $mbx = Get-Mailbox $alias
    $filePath = "\\server\folder\$($mbx.PrimarySmtpAddress).pst"
    New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox $alias -FilePath $filePath -WhatIf

  • How can I add a new record in an Access table.

    How can I add a new record in access with LabView, using activex, without using the database connectivity tools.
    Message Edited by Noawena on 05-16-2008 09:25 AM

    Much easier with a toolkit but you could use ADO objects,
    get connection, make a SQL object "INSERT record INTO table where  ...." 
    Execute the parameterized query
    Free up record sets data
    close connection when done.
    This is a very simplified version

    I would like to ask the following question. I am using mac os x 10.9 maverics me quicktime player version 10.3. Can I trim a video recording without having to press the pause or save it as a file? Or can I add a new recording to a video file? Thanks in advance

    Well,
    I tried the "Internet Recovery" option and finally saw Mac OS X Mountain Lion's install page but after waiting 7 hours when I just thought its going to start installing, I got another progress bar with 36 hours remining time to download "Additional Components" then after progressing 2-3 hours, it shows "Unable to write installation something..., Contact Apple Care"
    Then I accidently rebooted the machine and now it seems Internet Recovery don't work anymore, it shows "support.apple.com - 40 something!" error, and finally when I tried to reboot using Recovery HD, I found it's gone as-well!
    To be honest, I don't know what to do now, I am and dissapointed... also I do not have any Apple Store nearby, there is an authorized country reseller almost 650/km far away from my residents and they even charges too high (like $250) for doing such repairs (as per phone conversation)
    If anyone have any idea or anything to help me with, please do share- I'd be eternally grateful!

  • How does one add a personal recorded M4R file to the ring tones in the UK system for iPhone 3GS

    How does one add a personal recorded M4R file to the ring tones in the UK system for iPhone 3GS.
    I have tried all sorts of ways of adding my personal M4R file but can't find the place (within the UK versions of iTunes} to transfer this file so that I can select it as a ring tone.
    I've tried also changing to the US version of iTunes and still can't find a way of doing it, although I have heard that it can be done.

    You should be able to just drop it into the library within iTunes.
