Only the ports skeleton is updated. If you want to update/upgrade your installed ports, you have to use something like sysutils/portupgrade. > 2- For instance if I'm just interested in > updating /usr/ports/net ports, do I do it > commenting the ports-all line and comment out > ports-net line? > > 3- I don't have the /usr/ports/net-im folder, Can > I add the line ports-net-im, to download his > content? It's always safer to use ports-all, as most ports have dependencies on ports outside its immediate tree. If you don't update all dependancies you almost always have trouble building your desired port.
