Has anyone else had problems with duplicate content on forums?  And how did you go about combating it?  I have a small issue with forum archives at the moment and am looking for strategies to tackle it.

Essentially, you should try to prevent the same content being made availabel through more than one URL.  This is a common mistkae people make when using SEF urls.  They overlook the fact that the same content is still available using the regular url.  You should block SEs from accessing the regular forum urls in your robots.txt file.
