    I just finished reading the Handbook for CVSup.  It appears to be a 
very simple process.  I'm currently running
FreeBSD 4.8 and from my understanding you can keep your sources up to 
date via CVSup.  Does this
mean if I were to do a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.8 and then CVSup my 
source all known security issues would
be resolved for the particular FreeBSD I'm running?  Would the following 
supfile update all of my sources for
FreeBSD 4.8?

   *default tag=RELENG_4_8
   *default host cvsup3.FreeBSD.org
   *default prefix=/usr
   *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
   *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress
     src-all

       I currently update all known security issues via patch < 
/path/to/patch method and following the instructions for each security 
advisor.

Thank You
