Very Computer

I would like to know if there is an accepted procedure for upgrading a
package that is in the base install of FreeBSD. I'm running 4.5 which
installed OpenSSH 2.9 and I would like to run the latest version of ssh.
If I had installed the ssh from the ports tree myself, I would have no
problem upgrading the software, but in this case I am not so clear on
what to do. I'm not inclined to update my system to 4.6 just for one
software package if I can avoid it. Any help would be appreciated.

        In this case install the openssh port, usually when there is a port
for something in the base system it is the way to get the latest cut
of whatever it is and have it supplement the base system (so you have both
available).
