Hello all,

Up to now, I've only used OBSD on small old boxes, just to poke around
with.  Since they haven't been used online, I haven't worried about
upgrading.

I'm planning to move my main box (HP NetServer LPR, dual P-II-450 with 1
GB ram, two 36 GB SCSI drives and an HP NetRaid card) from Debian to
OpenBSD.   I'll be using a lot of packages or ports.

My understanding is that right now there are no security updates to
packages.  I can't see in the FAQ how security updates are handled for
ports.

I would like to follow the -patch branch, rather than to keep up with
-current.  I'm on dialup and don't want to use the phone line too much.

Could someone point me to the appropriate docs or info on the
mechanism for keeping the packages/ports of a stable OBSD system
up-to-date?

Thanks,

Doug.
