Domain showing without WWW

Question

redirecting www.subdomain.example.com to subdomain.example.com

I have a hard time understanding DNS mapping and such.

Right now, whether I type in my URL with or without WWW, it loads the site, but the URL displays without the WWW. But I would like the WWW to be displayed.

Domain registrar is Hover and Host is Laughing Squid

What am I missing?

Thanks,

You didn't provide any details around the server configuration, etc., but you apparently have DNS entries registered for both - pointing to the same site, but have a rewrite rule in effect that is redirecting the "www" version to the non-"www" version.

Thing is, I don't see any DNS entries! only mail CNAME – jonasll Jan 24 '12 at 05:25
@jonasll - I assume you meant mail (MX) and CNAME? CNAME is a DNS entry. It works like an alias, and must be pointing to a host (A) record. If you provide the URL, we could provide some specifics. – ziesemer Jan 24 '12 at 05:26
No, there is a CNAME for mail.url.com. – jonasll Jan 24 '12 at 05:28
@Downvoter, please leave a comment as to your concern here? – ziesemer Jul 30 '15 at 12:38
