We have a 3 year old site (.org) and a 2 year old site (.com) and would like to redirect the .com to the .org as it is more well known.
Our problem is, if we use "domain alias" to avoid hosting the .com site, the permalink .htaccess file does not allow our root .htaccess file to redirect to the correct URL thus creating duplicate content.
