DMARC Record issue

[Chris Vaughan]

I have been given the task of implementing DMARC in our BIND servers due the recommendation of a security audit on our systems.

Whenever I create the record in the forward server, and refresh the zone, it comes out in the slave zone with escape characters inserted in the TXT record.

This occurs in every version of BIND that I have tried, from 9.7 up to 9.10.

Primary test zone record:

_dmarc.<domain>. IN TXT "v=DMARC1; p=reject; rua=root at dns-test-1.<domain>; aspf=s; rf=afrf; sp=reject"

Slave test zone record:

_dmarc                  TXT     "v=DMARC1\; p=reject\; rua=root at dns-test-1.<domain>\; aspf=s\; rf=afrf\; sp=reject"
