Hey im trying to get a user to be a Admin in more then one Domain.
Is that possible or is that a superAdmin tool only?

Much of what superadmin can do is just down to the permissions allocated to the superadmin group. For example superadmin has "domain_select" and "domain_all" whereas admin does not.
Have a look in Advanced->Group Manager->Permissions

Adrian's suggestion might work but would also give access to all domains on the system.
I believe "nested domains" is a feature the developers have built but is either still in beta or is a higher membership level feature.
The work around we implemented for the single person that needed access to multiple domains was to just give that person multiple user accounts, one for each domain he needed. If unique usernames isn't enabled, it can be the same name under each domain needed, but would require enabling the domain selection on login page, or the "admin" choosing the correct domain name to browse to.
Our system has unique users set to global and typically build the username as the person's email address. The one multi domain admin we have at the moment is lucky to have an easy name to manipulate and multiple email aliases.
customer1.domain.com has user mike@hisdomain.com
customer2.domain.com has user mike.lastname@hisdomain.com
customer3.domain.com has user Mlastname@hisdomain.com
Neither solution is ideal, but for limited use cases, it works ok for us.
Another alternative could be to use a username such as customer1admin, customer2admin under each domain if email addresses are cumbersome.

Just create a user with the same username in that domain. They will have to log into each domain individually but that works.
It may sound a pain but in practice its not, after all you don't often need to make modifications to multiple domains at the same time.
