    in your .htaccess file, change domain to your domain name

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.domain\.com$ [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]

    Most of the control panels also have this redirect option available where such tasks can be easily accomplished.

    Yup, redirect is the best option - implement permanent 301 redirects. Also, you could select the appropriate option from Google Webmasters tool to tell Google which version to use while indexing and displaying results. Thats the easy way out but is only relevant for Google.

    With regards to the redirect, the implementation would depending on the type of server the website is hosted on. Check with your hosting provider if you are unsure about it.
