301 redirection

Look in your .htaccess file

Redirect www to non-www:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.yourdomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://yourdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

Redirect non-www to www:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourdomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yourdomain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

You should ALWAYS use one of these redirects everytime! This way search engines know which one you want to use and there is no danger in getting duplicate listings/penalties/etc for two different sites with the exact same content.

However, when I use your code, the browser is sent into a loop, which ends with an error.
(Error is given in Norwegian, but xtremely loosely translated "the command will never be completed")

It does work, the code given. I'm not sure where I fucked up, but when I tried again today, it was effortless. GFmyself
