Daniel0 Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 www and non-www have different entries in the DNS server's zone files. They will both have to be changed. If you aren't running the DNS server yourself it would be best to contact your host's support department.

What probably happened there is both requests were served by two different DNS servers, one had been updated with the new information, the other hadn't. This is common, and is why they generally note that propagation can take up to 72 hours.
