Hi @gotj,  
Thanks for sharing this node!!!  
Recently we needed (for another discussion) a way to find the TXT records of a domain.  
Would be nice if you could add that to your node, e.g. checkboxes to specify what you need (and of course by default the A-record selected).  
I see in your code that you use the [dns](http://nodejs.org/api/dns.html) module, so 'think' this can be accomplished via `dns.resolveTxt(domain, callback)`.  
Hopefully you like this idea...  
Bart

That is true!!!  
Because you have helped me so quickly, you will receive a vip ticket in your local post office to use one of my nodes for free during one month 🤣  
Thanks a lot! I appreciate it...
