I have a client with a site I have maintained for a while at: www.firstdomain.com

The client just bought another domain to attract another audience:
www.seconddomain.com

The client does not want to host a site at the second domain. They just want people to be directed to the first domain homepage. Like a mirrored site, but really a redirect.

I need to setup a script with an intelligent redirect on the homepage of the www.firstdomain.com. I thought I knew how to do it, but my hunches were wrong.

Any direction on how to go about setting this up is greatly appreciated.

They should be able to redirect the domain with only 2 things:

1) CPanel and an Add-on Domain
2) Set the domain namservers to the hosting and then add the add-on domain, set the domain to be redirected to the page through CPanel

Thanks! Unfortunately, I do not have access to the CPanel. I just have FTP priviledges on this site.

Any ideas on an alternate method?
