I think the easiest is:

If you must use ports: regularly cvs update or cvs up your local ports
tree and run the /usr/ports/infrastructure/build/out-of-date script to
find things to update.

If you use packages (recommended) just make sure $PKG_PATH is set and
pkg_add -ui. It will prompt you to install any updated versions.
