Best keep www. prepended : A decade or so back I noticed http://freebsd.org answered as well as http://www.freebsd.org & so I started dropping the www, but webmaster@ corrected me, pointing out some of the freebsd host[s] answering the DNS A record for the cluster might then or in future not be served by httpd. ( Similarly, I'm gradually restoring the www. prefix I previously stripped off some of my own http://www.berklix.com URLs, as I've realised there may be times when I want browsers to access only the www DNS A rec. httpd served subset of my berklix.com cluster (eg when I'm reconfiguring/ upgrading one host etc) ) I believe though some browsers automatically prepend a www. [if original URL first fails?] but some do not prepend www.
