            Bug ID: 222678
           Summary: wrong HTTPS redirect on
                    https://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: freebsd-doc at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: wosch at FreeBSD.org

On the page https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/introduction.html
is a link in the footer to download the documentation

"All FreeBSD documents are available for download at
http://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/ "

The link http://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/ works fine. However, if you
replace it with an HTTPS link

https://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/

you will be redirect to 
https://download.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/

and get a HTTP status 404


I'm not sure if the redirect from "ftp.freebsd.org" to "download.freebsd.org"
is by intention. But if we do this, then the redirect link should be apparently

https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/doc/
