I'm afraid I may have messed up my site's organization

So I recently started working on an existing site for a company, and I'm afraid I may have done something to lose some backlinks.

So to start off, say the website is www.domain.net and when I arrived domain.net and www.domain.net showed up as two separate sites so I changed my web.config file to direct all domain.net to www.domain.net

The homepage was called default.asp, and I wanted the homepage to always show up as www.domain.net instead of www.domain.net/default.asp.  Of course they both showed the same thing but I couldn't figure it out. So I removed www.domain.net/default.asp from indexing and changed the my internal links to the homepage to point at www.domain.net instead of simply pointing at the file default.asp.

So now www.domain.net/default.asp still brings up the page, but I want it to revert to www.domain.net.  I'm also a little worried because I noticed that one of my incoming links points at www.domain.net/default.asp and it doesn't get passed along to www.domain.net and I think i may have damaged my sites SEO

I guess this is a very complicated and roundabout way of saying this, but how can I get www.domain.net/default.asp to take you to www.domain.net

Thanks. I also realized I can just redirect in my web.config file on my drive home

301 redirect! set up a rule in your .htaccess file to redirect  www.domain.net/default.asp to www.domain.net
