All: I have been playing around with make.conf and I see that it is possible to to use the "NO_OPENSSH" variable to not build openssh when updating fbsd from source. I also noticed in the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file that there i= s a "sshd_program" entry that can be used to adjust where the installation of sshd is. I am assuming that this means that I can install openssh from the ports exclusively and use the rc.conf file to launch the ports sshd on startup. Here are my questions about this: 1. Is my assumption correct? 2. Does this also apply to things like kerberos and openssl 3. Does this impose any notable side effects to the system (possibly with stability/security)? Thanks A
