So the reverse zones are located on AD domain controllers. These reverse zones are of course configured as forward zones on the IPA DNS server. So reverse lookup works properly for all AD computers but I miss a possibility that if we join a computer to IPA which adds a DNS record or manually add a DNS record that the reverse record will be automatically added on AD site as it would be done if the reverse zone would be located on IPA site.

I can see two options:
- configure DHCP server to somehow update the DNS server (to avoid
authentication of client machines to to the DNS server for updates)

- use two-way trust - you already denied this option

Sorry, we do not have better answer for you right now.
