Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? Yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? Yes
Joomla! version: 2.5.11
PHP version: 5.3.21
MySQL version: 5.1.49
Host: http://markdark.dyndns.org/kensoor25/
Akeeba Backup version which took the backup: Akeeba Backup Professional 3.7.10
Kickstart version used to extract the backup: (unknown)

Description of my issue:
I created backup files from www.kensoor.nl (production site). I try to restore these backups on my development server (markdark.dyndns.org/kensoor25/). Everything went fine, but I set the option in Admin Tools to redirect any URL without the use of www to include the www.

Problem I run into is that when the backup is restored on markdark.dyndns.org/kensoor25, Admin Tools tries to redirect this to www.markdark.dyndns.org/kensoor25/, which results in 404. Where can I manually adjust this setting on the development server? I can't access the adminstrator or website, because of the redirection. I need to adjust the configuration by hand into a file or database. But I can't find where.

Thanks in advance.

To fast to create a ticket. I manually adjust the .htaccess.admintools file to disable the redirection.
