I’m trying to make [http://ironruby.net](http://ironruby.net) take you to the same page as [http://www.ironruby.net](http://www.ironruby.net), but in the meantime both might be broken. If so, just go to [http://ironruby.rubyforge.org](http://ironruby.rubyforge.org). PS. Anyone know how to do this on GoDaddy? Extremely confusing! ~js ---

Yeah, add some custom DNS servers and use a real DNS management tool 😉 Seriously though, click on the domain, click on the “Total DNS Control and MX Records” Look at the A record, make sure the A record points to the same host as the CNAME record for ‘www’ (or both A records if there’s two). Usually you have the A record that points to the site and a CNAME record that points to the A record… On Thu, May 8, 2008 at 5:59 PM, Jimmy S. \< ---

This is all running on Rubyforge … not sure what they’re using. Jimmy – perhaps you could ping Tom C. (removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid[mailto:removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid)) about this?

This is how I once told Apache to redirect all HTTP URIs to HTTPS: ``` RedirectMatch permanent (.*) https://mail.colliertech.org$1 ``` So you may want to do something like this: RedirectMatch permanent https?://ironruby.net(.\*) [http://www.ironruby.net$1](http://www.ironruby.net$1) If they’re both on the same web server, you can do something like this: ``` ServerName www.ironruby.net ServerAlias ironruby.net ``` This all assumes you’re using apache with mod\_alias[http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod\_alias.html](http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_alias.html), of course 🙂 I’m sure there’s something quite similar for IIS, though.

This shouldn’t need, and shouldn’t be done via a rewrite. DNS provides CNAME’s for it, as someone else brought it up earlier in the thread. Rewrite’s are good however for things like the https redirect mentioned earlier, although I believe there is a HTTP header that redirects to ssl.
