Hi everyone,
New user here... I've been searching around trying to find out how to upgrade sshd for security reasons without much help. In general it seems like installing packages is much more difficult on freeBSD than ubuntu/mint/debian/redhat/suse/etc. and I'm kind of wondering why that is the case. The repos by default aren't working and to me that really seems off. These give errors seen in #2 below.
Anyway, I tried:
1. Downloading the package directly from OpenSSH and extracting, configuring, make, and make install and it didn't end up changing the ssh -v
2. Adding pkg+ to the repo in /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf and running pkg update and then pkg upgrade which only give me => problems pkg: PACKAGESITE in pkg.conf is deprecated. Please create a repository configuration file
3. pkg_add -r openssh-portable installs but also does not update ssh -v
All I want to do is update packages, how on earth does everyone do it?
