The openssh port you want is security/openssh-portable (which is at version= =20 4.6p). Unlike the obsolete and unmaintained openssh port, it also features = an=20 option to overwrite the base system openssh. Note that while the openssh in= =20 the base system might not be the latest version, it is maintained and FreeB= SD=20 will provide security fixes for it if necessary.
