Hi John,

Your reading should include:

http://www.uk.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html

I think most people (including myself) use cvsup and portupgrade to
maintain their system and application software.

There's an article on portupgrade (including plenty of other useful
material) here:

http://www.onlamp.com/pub/ct/15

I'm taking it that you're unfamiliar with FreeBSD ports to some extent 
and more familiar with Linux software maintenance tools.
