Mobile version of the page and SEO

Mobile version of the page and SEO
I`m doing a huge onsite job for one of my clients and have noticed that he is also indexing the m.domain.com version of his site.

The domain.com and m.domain.com are have the same content. It looks like a DC issue to me if on desktop search Google can index and show it in search results.

What do you think guys? How do you solve this? By deindexing m.domain.com from desktop search??

?ukasz Rogala: Ok, I found that i should use rel="alternate" and rel="canonical" to make it work correct.
