Definitely you should use 301 permanent redirect. Google treats www and non-www as two different sites and even can ban your sites because of duplicate content..
Here is what i use :

Code:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [L,R=301]

That basically redirects all non-www request to www.domain.com
With 301 redirect pagerank will also be transferred

#1 - yes they are different pages - however the best way to solve this is to have your server host fix their config file as its not set up the way you would want it to prevent this - its a pretty easy fix on their end and avoids using the 301s - that way it will also avoid the ww2s and wwww etc that will inevitibly happen along the way

#2 - the problem is not caused by your server but in how other people link to you - some will use the www and some wont - and google usually finds both - and really not a big deal as long as you fix your server config as above
