Hi,

I just installed SBS on my network and I'm trying to forward requests
to an additional web server on my network.

This is not a good idea. If you must host webservers yourself, put them in a
DMZ so they don't touch your LAN at all.

Currently, my main host is
www.domain1.com (or company name). I have an additional site I would
like to host as www.domain2.com as well. Nothing seems to work and
I'm confused about how to enter this in DNS. Do I add another zone
for domain2.com?

Not in your internal DNS; don't confuse the two. This would be done with
whomever hosts the *public* DNS for your domain(s).

Also, I want my www site for domain1.com to run off
the other web server and then have my employees hit
https://portal.domain1.com to access the internal sharepoint stuff
and web mail. Could someone point me in the right direction on how to
run SBS along with an addtional windows servers? Thanks!

You can put whatever links on you want, but as per the first paragraph, you
don't want to host public websites on your LAN or let traffic on port 80 hit
the LAN at all. It's a big huge security risk.
