Description
In DNS module, "Forwarders" (Redireccionadores in Spanish) is very confused.
Please add some text to explain that adding some DNS servers IP's, the DNS server (bind9) will ask them instead of Internet root DNS servers.
I suggest to change title to anything more descriptive too.

There's a pretty clear explanation of the concept of forwarders in zentyal documentation here: http://doc.zentyal.org/en/dns.html#dns-forwarders. I can't comment on how descriptive the Spanish version is but the English version is pretty clear.
The term "Forwarders" is the standard naming convention used by Bind 9 and the implications are pretty well understood by those who are very familiar with DNS. Therefore I don't think it advisable to rename it. For those who aren't familiar the documentation above should be sufficient.
