I have a duplicate content problem. Txp-problem or mod-rewrite only?

Hello

I’ve found out that the follwing urls shows “identical content”.

a) http://devsup.de/
b) http://devsup.de/artikel
c) http://devsup.de/artikel/
d) http://devsup.de/artikel/?pg=2

Furthermore if I put the txp:body-texts complete inside the categorie pages, google more and more accepts thoose “artikel” pages for content and declares the real articles for duplicate content.

So it is better to poste only the exerpts in the categorie pages.

I’ve written this down, because

1) It may be interested for someone else here.
2) I actually do not know, if I need one ore more pages listed from b to d. My Idea is a redirect. Or is there any reason against it?

Thanks for all tips
Best regards
Wolfgang

zem_redirect auto adds a trailing slash on pages
