Default Re: Duplicate Content Issues Between domain.com and index.ph

My question though is to do with the www.domain.com and www.domain.com/index.php.

Google is seeing them as two distinctly different pages, with different cache dates (may 26th and may 30) and different pr (4 and 3 respectively).

My server admin says you cannot do a 301 redirect of the /index.php to the www.domain.com without creating an endless loop.

So my question is what to do about the duplicate content issue and the splitting of the PR... ?

Any suggestions or input please...

If not domain(domain/index)
then redirect to domain(domain)
(i did this with a javascript redirect)

If it's not possible with a redirect perhaps it's possible with a url rewrite.
Don't know or you end this way in an endless loop.

To be more precise about the javascript :
<script language="Javascript">
<!--
if (window.location!="http://domain.xx/")
{
window.location="http://domain.xx/";
}
// -->
</script>
