Im discussing problems with my site on the google nntp group and theyre
saying my sites suffering from having both www. and non www. llistings
on google which is flagging my site as having duplicate content...

Put a httpd.ini in the root. Put this in it (adjust where necessary):

[ISAPI_Rewrite]
RewriteCond Host: ^yourdomain\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http\://www\.yourdomain\.com$1 [I,RP]

Works for me. Try pretletters.net in the address bar and see where you end
up.

..ini ? we're on shared hosting and i dont think we've root access -
will this still work?

i know that we dont have ASAPI (ive done extensive research and
pestered the host to impliment it)

I'm with a virtual host and shared hosting. My domain has a directory
named wwwroot. That's where I FTP my files to, that's where the .ini goes
too.

It's best to check with your host. I just explained how it _should_ be
done. For details, your host knows best.
