Re: domain redirection how?

Reading further, it seems you mean "redirection" in the context of an
apache based website. So...

That seems a very strange thing to do, given it's not possible to mix
CNAME and other types of DNS record.
In file tothis.eu:
$ORIGIN tothis.eu
@ A 192.168.1.1
...
In file somedomain.eu:
$ORIGIN somedomain.eu
@ A 192.168.1.1 ; Or elsewhere
...
Now within the apache configuration relating to the somedomain.eu target,
you need a (virtual) host that forces a web redirect to the new target:
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName somedomain.eu
Redirect permanent http://tothis.eu/
</VirtualHost>

Did you search for any?
http://httpd.apache.org/ is a good reference for Apache stuff.
