"in front"? That sounds like some misunderstanding, either on your side
or mine - perhaps I didn't get what you want to achieve?
Authoritatives and recursives provide a different kind of service and to
different "clients"; on a quick look I see that in the article though.
Historically I think both functions were commonly done by a single
service - BIND/named can still do it - but nowadays it's recommended to
run them separately. (Well, injecting a few "authoritative"
modifications of DNS inside a recursive server seems OK, but that's a
bit different.)
