Im just wondering if its possible to resolve a subdomain into another external subdomain.
For example if i can resolve:
test.mydomain.com INTO test.hisdomain.com
Any ideas?

If I understand what you're saying, I believe you're describing a CNAME. You would put something like the following line in the zone file for "mydomain.com":
| Code: | | test 14400 CNAME test.hisdomain.com. |
Then when you lookup test.mydomain.com, you will get a reply like this:
test.mydomain.com is an alias for test.hisdomain.com.
test.hisdomain.com has address 123.123.123.123
Is that what you're looking for? |

Absolutely yes!
I was missing the damn last . in the CNAME syntax so i was writing
| Code: |
test IN CNAME test.hisdomain.com
|
and got my local domain suffix added to this...
Thanks for helping me! |
