Perminant Redirect ... httpd.conf

Hi,

I'm trying to get one of my sites to give a 302 perminant redirect, when visiting it without the www. For example: http://foobar.com would go to http://www.foobar.com.

I've tried quite a few times;

Code:
# try 1 
redirect permanent courseworkbank.co.uk http://www.courseworkbank.co.uk

Code:
# try 2 
ServerName www.courseworkbank.co.uk 
redirect permanent courseworkbank.co.uk http://www.courseworkbank.co.uk

Code:
# try 3 
ServerAlias *.courseworkbank.co.uk 
Redirect permanent / http://www.courseworkbank.co.uk

The syntax isn't giving any errors, but its just not working :|

TIA

I used to use something like:

Code:
RewriteCond   %{HTTP_HOST}         ^foobar\.com$ 
RedirectPermanent   /        http://www.foobar.com

Thanks for the reply. Finalyl managed to get it working with a seperate <VirtualHost> entry for it without the www, and then it worked fine :) (just used a "Redirect 302 / http://www.domain.com/")
