I'm trying to do this

secure.domain2.com -loads content from- secure.domain1.com

So if somebody goes to secure.domain2.com it will load the content of secure.domain1.com

Note that I don't want a redirect, so if someone goes to secure.domain2.com in the address bar it will still say secure.domain2.com even though it's loading content from secure.domain1.com

I've read that it's possible with a CName or something like that, what is the best way to do that?
