Hello,
What is the preferred method that people are using for keeping openssl and

is there a way to update that without doing a complete
buildworld/installworld?  Just curious what other freebsd users are doing.
Thanks
 

I am quite happy with freebsd-update which fetches prebuild binaries if 
needed. Until now i fecthed updates just a couple of hours after an 
advisory. When using the GENERIC kernel you can get the updated kernel 
as well.

openssl/openssh from ports or base?
