[ale] Pulling all TXT records via dig

[Chris Fowler]

I think something is wrong at Earthlink.  I added a host entry Friday to see if they were being updated.  The TXT records from the screenshot were created on Thursday.  Today, Sunday, nothing.  Dig is giving me old entries and dacula.outpostsentinel.com is still unknown.

You have a full day for Time-To-Live.  It'll take that long to flush out
of provider caches.

In the future, reduce the TTL to an hour or less a couple days ahead.
Then changes will get picked up quickly when do proceed, along with any
quick fixes you discover you need.

Then put the TTL back to a long value a few days later.
