HEy guys im am extremely new to this filed but very devoted to an idea and a fast learner.
I am attempting to build  (in theory) one site that shares a databese . so i would have two different domains pointing to two different templates that share the same users and the same data... talk about easy transitioning  from one site to another.. the only this is i want  the  two  "sites to have a  slightly different  features or "permitions"..
and Suggestion on how to get this done or what direction so  i head towards?

Joomla has the features of the multiple template for different pages/Itemid
I will suggest you can try:
assign template a in page A
assign template B in page B

in your website root
you can put a index.html to do the redirection base on header:
for example:
if header/host is http://www.A.com redirect to http://www.a.com/
if header/host is http://www.B.com redirect to http://www.a.com/b/
