Don't know why this mod would be necessary- you can do that with domain parking since (I assume) you want the same content on both domains...

• You have your current domain say aaa.com
• You have forum setup and working on aaa.com
• Then you buy bbb.com
• You use cpanel or ask your host to "park" bbb.com on your existing hosting account
• now going to bbb.com brings up the same exact page as aaa.com
• For vBulletin to work correctly from either domain you need to go to Admin CP -> Settings -> Options -> Site Name / URL / Contact Details and set "Always use base URL" to NO, and add bbb.com to the redirect domain whitelist
• At some point set an .htaccess file to permanently redirect aaa.com to bbb.com so you don't lost you old links.
• In a few years, let aaa.com expire if you really don't want it.
