I am working on migrating a site from one server to another today.  On 
the old server there were multiple domains pointing at one virtual site 
eg:  www.domain.com, domain.com, www.domain.org and domain.org all point 
to the same virtual site and therefore the same content.  (Duplicate 
content.)  I am trying to devise a migration strategy that will include 
301 redirects and DNS. 

Do the search engines handle A records and CNAME records differently?  
If www is a CNAME to domain.org, is that the same as two A records 
www.domain.org and domain.org as far as search engines are concerned?  
Is that subject to the duplicate content penalty?  Do I need to create 2 
distinct virtual sites one for www and one for domain.org and have one 
of them redirect to the other?
