Is it possible to connect a secondary server to my primary servers DNS?
What I want to do is someting similar to using the planets dns, but in my case use my own dns, so if I setup a site on the secondary server it would resolve using the primary servers DNS (name servers)
Just curious & if anyone has a good howto or link if it is posible

Yes, you can do that. There is really not a complicating process.
What you do is to create the account as per normal on the secondary server. Then after you are done, just go to the primary server and create the DNS entry on it but just pointing to the secondary server IP addresses for all its 'A' records. Then at your domain name registrar, you just need to submit the primary server DNS server names for the secondary server site and you are in business.
