Redirect Help Needed

[mkdevo]

hello all,

this may not be a php thing, but i'm hoping someone can help me out. my site is php-based, but i think this is a .htaccess issue.

I recently decided to change the name/domain of my site. it used to be http://www.pbfans.com. now it's http://www.thebreakfast.info. the 2 domains are pointing to the same place, but I want to start redirecting people who type in pbfans.com to thebreakfast.info.

I did some reading here, and from what I understand, I need to modify my .htaccess file. I've tried a couple different variations, but I've been unsuccessful.

my current .htaccess file is below.. can someone tell me what I need to do to redirect www.pbfans.com to www.thebreakfast.info? any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

Do you have your own dedicated server or do you have a shared server at a hosting company ?

it's a shared server at a hosting company..

Two ways:

1. ask the hosting company to separate the virtual hosts and to add
   Redirect / http://www.thebreakfast.info/
   to the http://www.pbfans.com virtual host.

2. Add the following lines to your .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^{(www.)?pbfans.com}
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.thebreakfast.info/$1 [R=permanent,L]
