301 redirects

[stuartray@xxxxxxx]

Hi All,

I need to 301 rediect mysite.com to www.mysite.com. I found two examples on google search :

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{http_host} ^mysite.com [nc]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com$1 [r=301,nc] and  

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{http_host} ^mysite\.com$

RewriteRule ^.*$ http://www.mysite.com% {Request_URI} [R=permanent,L]

As you can see these two mod_rewrites are diferent, which one is correct? Or can I simply use the redirect directive like this:

RedirectPermanent /mysite.com http://www.mysite.com/

Thanks for any help you can give, I'm new to all this.

Stuart
