Question About Pointing a Host

[obryant32]

Currently we have multiple forward lookup zones in our internal DNS server. We're trying to somehow point a host record inside of one lookup zone to point to a host inside another forward lookup zone. (eg.) We have host#1 "www" inside of lookup zone "lendiastaging.com" When someone types that into their browser, we want them to be redirected to host#2 "staging" inside of lookup zone "lendialogix.com". I know we could do that with a redirect web page but we'd like to know if it can be done through DNS, if so...HOW?
Thanks
Matt

In DNS you could only point the conneciton to another server, ie.

http://www.lendiastaging.com

CNAME staging.lendialogix.com

Then on the server that staging.lendialogix.com resolves to you would obviously need a virtual host to answer requets for

http://www.lendiastaging.com.
