Hello,

if you want to see them in IPA, you must add those forwarders with IPA 
command

ipa dnsconfig-mod --forwarder=8.8.4.4 --forwarder=8.8.8.8 ...
or using webUI

This setting will override configuration of forwarders in named.conf.

I don't know if there are some historical reasons to configure 
forwarders only in named.conf during installation, do you know Petr?
