Sorry I think I am confusing people.  Here is the situation:

I have a RAQ3 server that I control the DNS for.  I have nameservers
registered with my domain.  There are features that I can not provide yet -
such as shopping cart, pgp encrypted form processing, etc - I have found
another company that I can get virtual sites at a good price, provide these
features and still make some profit.  I don't want the customer to know that
I am outsourcing their site....so I would like the nameservers on my
customers domain to be pointed to my RAQ3 for DNS.  They would then
see/believe that their site is on my server.  I would then setup the DNS to
point the site location back to the IP address of the outsourced site
company.

It's really just a way I was thinking of being able to provide services that
I can't afford or have not implemented yet without the customer knowing what
is going on.

Most of my customers would not know the difference, because they are fairly
*web ignorant*.  But I have lost several half way savy customers to my
previous reseller becuase they looked up the nameservers and went direct.
