I have the following situation
Webserver resides in a Domain A.
A dns record in domain C lists the webserver as webserver.domainC.net .
A DNS record resides in DOmain B listing the webserver as Webserver.domainB.net .
I need for clients in DomainB to be able to resolve webserver.domainC.net .

Is it possible to add a DNS records in Domain B to accomplish this?

The following is the reason I need for this to occur: The webserver is running a dotnetnuke site. A web application which also resides on the webserver is being ported into the DNN site through Iframe. THe IFrame target requires a URL. I need clients on both of 2 remote domains to be able to resolve this URL in order for the IFrame to function.
 
what you said is confusing to me. Try this. In domain B add a new forward lookup zone for domain A and add a new host A record for the webserver. In domain C add a new forward lookup zone for domain A and add a new host A record for the webserver. Everyone from all three domains should be able to resolve the IP for the webserver in domain A.

hope this helps,

Why dont you either setup Zone Transfers from domainC to domainb??? Or setup a conditional forwarder that says that any queries on the domainb network for domainc.net get forwarded onto the domainc.net dns server
