http://domain.com forward to http://www.domain.com - zone file question.

[Leading Names]

Can I point http://domain.com to http://www.domain.com by editing the zone files for a domain, and if so how?

Thanks

Any particular reason you do not want to do it using .htaccess?

 

[accomatic]

Do you want to redirect all traffic from http://domain.com to http://www.domain.com? This can be done at webserver level only, either httpd.conf or .htaccess (for apache webserver; other software may have different configs).

Add this to your .htaccess file, just change "web" to your domain change ext. if needed.


#Begin non-www page protection #
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.web\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.web.com/$1 [L,R=301]
</IfModule>
# End non-www page protection

Add a CNAME entry to your DNS zone:

CNAME: www.domain.com
VALUE: domain.com
