Read apache docs for UseCanonicalName. But you may not be able to set
that off in .htaccess, because it says Context: server config, virtual
host, directory, but virtual host and directory can only be done in server
config. So your web host would need to change that (possibly within your
VirtualHost section if a virtual host).
