Dear Kevin, Thanks for your help. I can now see the index.html file (see 1 below). However, I can no longer see the other files in that directory (see 2 below).
1) index.html
The following
(shell)$ curl --ipv4 --verbose http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/ (shell)$ curl --ipv6 --verbose http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/
now both report
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Location: http://dumps.wikimedia.your.org/
But the following
(shell)$ curl --ipv4 --verbose --location http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/ (shell)$ curl --ipv6 --verbose --location http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/
follow the redirect and report
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
2) Files
Now, however, I can not get other files from that directory. For example, the following
(shell)$ curl --ipv4 --verbose http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/rsync-dirlist-last-1-good.txt (shell)$ curl --ipv6 --verbose http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/rsync-dirlist-last-1-good.txt
both report
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently Location: http://dumps.wikimedia.your.org/r
The rather odd value for "Location" makes it impossible to follow the redirect. Thus
(shell)$ curl --ipv4 --verbose --location http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/rsync-dirlist-last-1-good.txt (shell)$ curl --ipv6 --verbose --location http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/rsync-dirlist-last-1-good.txt
report
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Sincerely Yours, Kent

Nice catch!
That should be fixed now, and sending a 301 redirect on both ipv4 and ipv6.
Several of the pages on the “dumps” collection have hardcoded links that require them to be in the / (root) directory, so they require their own hostname.

Dear Ariel,
When I compare the following two commands
(shell)$ curl --ipv4 --verbose http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/ (shell)$ curl --ipv6 --verbose http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/wikimedia/dumps/
The first reports "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" The second reports "HTTP/1.1 200 OK"
Has anyone else noticed this?
Sincerely Yours, Kent
