hi all
I want users that enter into domain.com to be redirected to www.domain.com
What is a good approach to this? Play with the DNS settings or create a new domain entry that will simply redirect?
TIA
Alex
Full Version: domain.com to www.domain.com
Simply set up an .htaccess for the domain Alex. Leave your vhost.conf exactly the way it is.
The above will also redirect any aliased/parked domains you have over to the real one. Works great for the search engines too.
CODE
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url="http://www.domain.com/$1"]http://www.domain.com/$1[/url] [R=permanent,L]
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url="http://www.domain.com/$1"]http://www.domain.com/$1[/url] [R=permanent,L]
The above will also redirect any aliased/parked domains you have over to the real one. Works great for the search engines too.
well... Squire.. thanks for the 32472397294898034th time! 
I assume this will work regardless of the server control panel, correct?
Can someone please confirm?

Yup, it'll work on any *nix server where mod_rewrite is enabled.
