When I try to dig my server for TXT entry they are not being shown:

[root@nowosci powerdns]# dig @ns1.nowosci.org private._domainkey.nowosci.org TXT

; <<>> DiG 9.9.3-rpz2+rl.13208.13-P2-RedHat-9.9.3-4.P2.el6 <<>> @ns1.nowosci.org private._domainkey.nowosci.org TXT

    There cannot be dots at the end of domain name:

    Instead of this:

    _domainkey.nowosci.org.
private._domainkey.nowosci.org.

    Should be this:

    _domainkey.nowosci.org
private._domainkey.nowosci.org
