Have you got cpanel on it? If so... try...
click redirects and you should do it there... Want an other way? Create a blank index file you can try the java way.. http://www.web-source.net/javascript_redirect2.htm Or the html way.. (Prefered..) http://www.instant-web-site-tools.co...-redirect.html |

Is your domain with your host? You should try to avoid that.
If it was with a registrar you could just do domain forwarding right at the registrar. If it's with the host then a 301 through htaccess is going to be your option.

I don't use godaddy anymore (and enither should anyone else) but I'm sure you can redirect to a subdomain from their control panel.
You will usually have to switch the nameservers to their's before you can use their redirection settings. Quick search at GD gave me this: http://help.godaddy.com/article/422

That would be what's called a framed redirect.
There should be an option for regular or framed. If you can't find it you might want to contact GD support.
