custom .htaccess file 301 Redirect to non www form Prolems

[proctk]

Hi

I was searching your form and came a cross a post that showed this code to set up 301 Redirect

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^tomorrownextweek\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.tomorrownextweek.com/$1 [L,R=301]

Note I changed the web site to mine.

The problem I'm having is I'm getting a 500 error and it kills my web site when I load my .htaccess file

any ideas why

Your host may not allow you to use .htaccess or mod_rewrite.

Try removing this line...
Options +FollowSymLinks

Our Linux server has mod-rewrite turned on but it hates that line. Works great without it.
