NetBSDs "default" Webserver "bozotic" is - compared to todays typical 
internet webservers - very (!) limited and as such suitable to "just serve 
some files by HTTP" by a "simple" config.

Many / most internet web sites / servers require a more "capable" webserver.

I would prefer Apache 2.4 or Nginx.

i.e. 
redirect with Apache2.4

   <VirtualHost *:80>
      ServerName mysite.example.com
      Redirect permanent / https://mysite.example.com/
   </VirtualHost>

redirect with Nginx:

   server {
           listen 80;
           server_name example.com;
           return 301 https://$server_name/something;
   }
   server {
           listen 443;
           server_name example.com;
           return 301 https://$server_name/something;
   }
