Redirect domain.com to www.domain.com

Hi,

what would be the best practice to redirect all requests to

http://domain.com

to http://www.doamin.com ?

Is it possible to do this WITHOUT a distinct VHost for domain.com ?

(I don´t think so)


Thanks for your attention,
Peter

Hi,

I think you have defined a vhost for www.domain.com. Add a ServerAlias
domain.com to the vhost. And don't forget to configure your dns that it
knows about domain.com.

Bye

ok, i know this, buit this has a disadvantage, that people will have
domain.com in their browser address line, what gives again problems if
you want to swith parts of the site to https:// and you have a cert
only for www.domain.com

So what I wnat, is a redirect to www.domain.com on every request that
comes to domain.com. domain.com should NOT exist as a seperate vhost.

Hope, i could explain the problem...

Thaks for your attention,
