2) How do I use DNS TXT records?
(Or: Why do I need that trailing '.'?)
(Or: Why do my DNS TXT records get corrupted?)

Due to an original design decision, ldap2dns uses the DNScname attribute to
store DNS TXT data. This field is normally checked to see if it should be
expanded to include a trailing domain name (that is, any string that does not
end with a '.'). The "best" way to create DNS txt record for now is to create
the TXT entry as you normally would, then simply append a '.'. The '.' will not
be included in the resulting record and will prevent expansion or other
modification of the record.
