Would anyone be able to either offer a link, or explain the differences between
NetBSD/DragonflyBSD's pkgsrc and FreeBSD/OpenBSD's ports systems? Google
searches such as 'pkgsrc vs ports' have yielded nothing satisfying.

pkg_info has a --which flag that tells you what package a file came from:

I'd suggest something more like:

or
ping -c 1 $host

ifconfig em0 down && ifconfig em0 up
