Hello

I just found a website in google which is index under it's domain name *and*
under it's IP. Therefore the page is in the index twice. The page is using
postNuke; the index from the IP-address did crawl the postnuke directory
tree instead of the "normal" one it got by crawling the domain.

http://194.209.107.37/postnuke/html/admin.php
http://www.skema.ch/
--> both pointing to the same Website

Is this effect already known and google wants to index these pages twice?
May this be just a temporary effect during google dance? Should I report
this to the google staff?

Maybe a report should be done by somebody else - one of the competitors of
the organisation in question is my customer...

Regards
Peter

Which now redirects to http://194.209.107.37/postnuke/html/index.php
although google seems to have cached both ...index.php and ...admin.php

Not quite. Google's cached copy of these two pages *is* different. Perhaps
the crawler found the first one, indexed and cached it; www.skema.ch updated
their home page, then the crawler found the 'other' way to the site, checked
it for duplicate content, didn't match it, and so indexed and cached it
'again'.

http://216.239.53.100/search?&q=cach...ml%2Findex.php
and
http://216.239.53.100/search?&q=cach...ml%2Fadmin.php
are duplicate, but
http://216.239.53.100/search?&q=cach...ww.skema.ch%2F
is different

If www.skema.ch stop updating their site, then I would expect one of the two
entries in Google's index will disappear fairly quickly. If they update
their site regularly, then this situation may persist for a while...

Why are you so keen to seem them reported for this... could it be because
they're listed above your client in the SERPs? :-) It looks like this
isn't a deliberate attempt to get listed twice, just a side effect of them
using postnuke.

I see

They are on top of everything - so they are on top of my customer too.
That's
why I had been not a really good one to file any reports if any reports had
been
needed. They had suspected me - as you did...

But I don't like to find the same stuff over and over again while searching
the web.
Therefore I had asked that question anyway and I will - as a user of Google
- be
happy if that situation does not persist; no matter which website it is
(even if it
had been my own!).

OK.

Actually, I'm in the same boat and have been for over 6 months. My site is
indexed as glassgiant.com, veodns.com/~glassgia and
host5.veoweb.net/~glassgia. I haven't found a way to get rid of the last 2.
I've tried putting in absolute URLs on my site, but it did not work. Ideally,
I'd like to return a "Page moved permanently" error if a page is accessed
through either of the 2 non-domain URLs, but several Usenet posts and tech
support queries later, I'm still having the problem.

Good luck,
Shawn
