The following reply was made to PR misc/41379; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Jens Schweikhardt <schweikh@schweikhardt.net> To: Iwasa Kazmi <kzmi@ca2.so-net.ne.jp> Cc: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: misc/41379: Cannot browse directory tree on FreeBSD mirror site with web browser Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2002 18:40:18 +0200 Iwasa-san, [please Cc: to bug-followup@FreeBSD.org so the bug tracking system adds your mail too the audit-trail] # For example: # http://core.ring.gr.jp/archives/FreeBSD/ # # Above url is a top directory of mirrored directory tree. # The page displayed at above url is same with # ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/index.html. # # Many people who guided from other page # (ex. http://core.ring.gr.jp/ring/ftplinks.html.en ) # will see this page. # (This is a proper usage of FreeBSD/index.html, isn't it ?) Hmm. I'd rather say the bug is that http://core.ring.gr.jp/ring/ftplinks.html.en uses http instead of ftp. The directory listing appears fine when the link associated with "FreeBSD" is ftp://core.ring.gr.jp/archives/FreeBSD/ # This page have links to ftp.freebsd.org etc., but there is # no link to other directories under http://core.ring.gr.jp/archives/FreeBSD/. # # You can also see "ports", "releases" directory etc. by putting url directly # like "http://core.ring.gr.jp/archives/FreeBSD/releases/" if you know # correct directory name. But it is not true that all people can do it. # # I think that a file named "index.html" should be removed from top directory. Well, it's a valid file name and legitimate to have it there in case someone accesses the site using the http protocol. Would you mind asking the maintainer of core.ring.gr.jp to fix this link?
