openssh port, because of the security hole, i see the old version 3.6.1




how do I get the new version ? is the port not uptodate ?



You've probably downloaded the ports tree that comes whit a release. In order to get the latest ports you'll need to update the ports tree e.g. by using CVSup. Check the handbook at [1] on how to do that.
After you've updated your ports tree, go to /usr/ports/security/openssh and then type "make install". You should then get the latest version of OpenSSH installed.
