It's done the exact same way: with a CNAME record.  In the mydomain.com
zone file, you would put:

one  CNAME  two.yourdomain.com.

Why would you think it would be any different?  Aliases were created
specifically to support renaming domains when we migrated from the old
..ARPA domain to the domain hierarchy we now have.
