Naked domains and Network Solutions

[Bemmu]

I am trying to use Google App Engine to host my pre-existing site, and
got it to work on "fi.bemmu.com", but not "bemmu.com". I discovered
App Engine does not support "naked domains" like bemmu.com, and in the
instructions I was told to forward bemmu.com to fi.bemmu.com (I use
"fi" instead of "www").

My domain is hosted at Network Solutions (AFAIK at the time it was the
only option). I tried to do the forwarding, but the settings page
tells me that "Web Forwarding cannot point to its parent domain". Is
there a way to accomplish this so that my visitors going to bemmu.com
would not hit Network Solutions' "under construction" page?

something like blah.mydomain.com? looks like you have it working?
thanks!

I didn't see how this could happen, what you did was fowarding a
parent domain to a child domain, NOT backwards.
Did you try to foward fi.bemmu.com to bemmu.com? If not, you should
consult Network Solutions for answers.

@Bemmu
If I understand your question correctly you want to redirect incoming
traffic to your naked domain (bemmu.com) to your gae domain
(fi.bemmu.com). I would use a .htaccess file mod_rewrite.

Like:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://fi.bemmu.com [R=301,L]

Here's a cheat sheet for creating 301 redirects w/ many different
technologies.
