    I recently switched my forum from forums.domainn to domain/forums
    And to compensate for the backlinks etc that the old location had I put this into the viewtopic of the old location:

    <?
    Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
    header("Location: http://www.parascientifica.com/forums/viewtopic.php?".$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
    ?>

    It works for humans, but do bots get it?

    yes 301 redirects are perfect for getting search engine notified - always try ti use the 301 redirect

    Hope this helps...
