    Oh hang about, hadn’t seen the start of the second URL.. That’s, er.. that’s just wrong.

    Well, the URL works (wildcard DNS + no host header checks on the server – it even works with the IP address) and has links, so it would be something that we could index. It’s shown with &filter=0 to me, so it wouldn’t generally show up in the results next to the other URL.

    The proper solution would be for the server to either 301 redirect to the preferred version or just not use wildcard DNS (make this URL invalid).

    Not so much Google indexing errors, but schoolboy implementation errors by the Server-Admin of the site involved then…
