Use a CNAME record for a that points to b.

    Could you be more explicit? I have now started to configure a DNS, and
if your intention is redirect one of the hosts under your DNS to other I
think that a solution could be using a CNAME entry in the zone description
file, something like:
A.com.        CNAME    B.com.

The ending dots are important if you are referring to the full name because
if you don�t write them the names would be considered as canonical names and
would be added to the full name:
    imagine you have domain.com and the host is A.domain.com  ...
    A.domain.com  ---> would be A.domain.com.domain.com
    A.domain.com. ---> would be A.domain.com  (your domain domain.com would
not be added)

    I hope this helps you
