remove 'WWW' in ASP.NET MVC 1.0

Question

I am attempting to force the domain name to not use the \'www\'. I want to redirect the user if attempted. I have seen very little on an MVC solution. Is there anyway to harness

Answer 1

If you have control over the server, you should set up a virtual directory that accepts requests for "www.example.com" and permanently redirects (301) them to "example.com"

While this may be possible in ASP.NET MVC, it is not ASP's job to do this sort of redirecting.

On IIS:

On Apache:

    ServerName www.example.com
    Redirect permanent / http://example.com/

Both the IIS and the Apache settings will preserve the URL stem.
