DNS forwarding question

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I have a network 192.168.1.x with its own DNS servers which are setup with
forwarders to the ISP's DNS servers for non MYDOMAIN addresses. We have
just installed a line to a 172.100.100.x network which also has its own DNS
servers which are setup with forwarders to their ISP's DNS server for non
THEIRDOMAIN addresses.

We can ping and tracert back and forth fine, but we need to resolve each
other's DNS names without creating any sort of trusts. We also still want
to forward our Internet name servers resolutions to our individual ISPs.

Basically, we want it so a MYDOMAIN.com computer ( or DNS Server )looking to
resolve and address for *.THEIRDOMAIN.com it will be resolved by forwarding
to dnsserver.THEIRDOMAIN.com.

Right now we cannot resolve THEIRDOMAIN.com addresses because if they are
not on our DNS server, our ISP gets the request and naturally it fails. We
also can't manually put all the THEIRDOMAIN.com addresses on our DNS server
because the computers are on a DHCP server.

Any suggestions.
