ssh rpm

That's only if you're using the ports... in 2.7 I just use pkg_add -v
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.7/packages/i386/pkgname.tgz and away it
goes. Also handy is a little script I wrote to keep track of the mirrors
and auto-retry if pkg_add gives me an error if the site is busy.

Does using the ports version and doing a make in the directory structure go
grab the package and update it? If so... I'll have to do that with some of
the larger apps I'm using.

In OpenBSD do:

cd /usr/ports/<package_name/
make
make install
