for the base OS (kernel and core are same thing, unlike gnu/linux), use
freebsd-update. If you compiled your own kernel, then it will skip updating
the kernel only, in which case just csup /usr/src and recompile anyway
for ports, there are many methods. Read the ports section in the handbook.
personally I use prt-mgmt/portupgrade.

Subject: How to Update my Freebsd packages kernel and Core
Hello I'm new to Freebsd and I would like to know if there is anything
like apt-get for upgrating everything in my Freebsd. If not Could you
tell me how I can do it.
Some of my packages are from ports and some using the sysinstall and I
install them from the cd.
I use Freebsd 7.1
thank you very much.
