My question is:
is it possible perform an alter table to change the column field in a

If so, can pdns serve the long TXT records (after tha operation)?
If so, how will pdns serve the long records, splitting them?

You cannot have a single TXT record longer than 255 characters..

http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1035.html Section 2.3.4

And if you want longer records then see..

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4408#section-3.1.3

Do you want to create invalid DNS packets?
Obviously not!

Probably I badly explained myself.

I know that the size limit is 255 chars, and given that there is the way to create a multiple string in a single dns record;

then my question was: does pdns 2.9.22 support the multiple string once the the content field size has been changed from varchar(255) to varchar(64000)?
