Could I update the ports collection on my 4.3-release
machine from here:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-stable/ports/

If so, how?  A url describing the procedure would be
great.

Since I'm on a 56k, could I update just the programs
that I want updated?  Would I just copy the files in

x11/XFree86-4/

to my hd if I wanted to upgrade X to 4.1?

Thanks for helping the newbie out folks.  I want to
learn "the right way" to take care of my bsd system. 


Abe
