OpenBSD ports is a collection of third party software that are ready to install. These packages do not undergo the same security audit that the OpenBSD base system goes through.
Getting the ports tree:
[user@host ~]$ su - [user@host ~]# cd /usr [uesr@host usr]# ftp ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/`uname -r`/ports.tar.gz [user@host usr]# tar xzvf ports.tar.gz [user@host usr]# rm ports.tar.gz
Search the ports tree:
[user@host usr]# cd ports [user@host ports]# make search key=keyword
Install a port:
[user@host usr]# cd appDir [user@host appDir]# make install
