As long as you have DNS set up to resolve www.domain.x and domain.x then the
problem will be in the virtual hosting setup of your webserver. I use
Welcome on my Mac OS classic webserver to convert different iterations of
the possible URLs to my sites.

Just know that to a webserver with virtual hosts, www.domain.x is a
different host from domain.x. You have to set them both up to serve from the
respective folder.

I hope this helps;
Jeff
