301 redirect for whole site? or page by page?

Can you set it up for the root?

[silverbytes]

I need to point my old site com.something to .com only

is there any way to redirect the root to the new site..
I've tried this in httaccess but doesn't seems to work..

Redirect permanent / [mynewsite.com...]

by the way: is that better than redirecting page by page...?
Should I redirect /index.htm to [mynewsite.com...] too?

Any help please?

Are both domains hosted on the same server? If so, the Redirect permanent directive will lead to a redirection loop.

You could use mod_rewrite to accomplish this without looping.

Redirecting the entire domain can be done with one redirect -- There's no need for (or benefit to) redirecting each page individually.
