If you want to use a single string with spaces in it as a txt record, you have to quote it twice. samba-tool dns add s4server example.org example.org TXT "'v=spf1 mx -all'" If you are using nsupdate to add the record, then make sure to quote it as follows: server s4server update add example.org 3600 IN TXT "v=spf1 mx -all" send That should get you the desired result.
