Hi Robert,
thanks for the tips.
If I give -u without parameters, it will update all system or only
installed packages?
Another, it's useful read Ports ml for update and vulnerability?
Thanks in advance.

See 'man pkg_add'... the -a, -u, -n, and -i options might be of
interest to you.
I use pkg_add -a -u

Hi list,
sorry for late, but you are talking about update, and I've a
question about this.
I'm installing software precompiled using pkg_add -r
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/....../openvpn-version.tgz
How to see if there are update/security fix for openvpn?
>From "Ports" ml?
Thanks in advance.

really, in order to keep updated, following -current
is a good policy.
sure, updates in -current are more "fresh" ! but the
investissement may be
important, as it is required to upgrade the system before add
or upgrade
ports...
I think I will consider installing -current on an external
disk, in order to
"see and learn" upgrade process (via snapshots) before
definitively switch to
-current on my laptop.
You will find it very quick and easy:
boot bsd.rd and choose (U)pgrade
reboot
sysmerge -s $ -x $
maybe reboot
check current.html for possible manual steps
pkg_add -ui
It's possible to have modest machine to be completely updated
in about
10 minutes completely binary way.
Thanks Stuart.
