I'm interested in applying standard "Release" versions of FreeBSD with out
using a compiler in the system.  I generaly don't advise leaving a working
compiler in say a firewall or a hardened system.  I know that I can have a
seperate system that I can use to connect via CVS and use that to update the
hardened systems. But doesn't that just keep my sources up to date and I
still need to build/build world every so often?   Is there another way to
apply the security related patches ?

Thanks
