I have DNS running for a bunch of domains of webs I'm
hosting. I'd like to add a 2nd, seperate web server to
my network. How would I define this in my 1st machine
which is running the DNS server?

Thanks very much!!

Same name or different?

Same name, add the address record with the new IP under the
same name -- the default is to (usually) give these out "round robin".
It offers no fault tolerance but some limited load balancing.

Different name: Just add the new A record, WebServer.yourdomain.com
for the machine name.
