    Hello,

    I have two domains, the first one is the original one let's say domain1.com
    and i want to make domain2.com point to domain1.com

    so if the original page like domain1.com/video/1.htm , i can type domain2.com/video/1.htm and it will goes to the same page

    how can I do that, do you have any online tutorial you could share ??
    thank you

    just forward that doing to the other, you can do it in your Cpanel account.
    the tool called "forwarders"

    Learn to edit htaccess files. It is a skill you will need for many reasons.

    No, the best way to make the domain2.com point to domain1.com is to park the domain2.com with the Domain Root of the directory root of the domain1.com .

    Here is how to find the directory root for your domain: http://developingsites.blogspot.com/2013/10/how-to-find-root-web-directorys-location.html

    And here is how to park a domain: http://www.cpanel.net/media/tutorials/parked.htm

    You have two options to redirect/forward your domain name:

    Through your hosting cpanel
    Through your registrar.
