Hi everyone.

Would doing the following be the correct way to update a system?

cvsup /usr/share/examples/cvsup/DragonFly-supfile
Remember, there are cvsup mirrors around for DragonFly aswell.

check out http://www.dragonflybsd.org/main/download.cgi (look at the 
source mirrors list.)

Also, how often should I update my system?
You shouldnt update it blindly. Subscribe yourself to the dragonflybsd 
commit mailinglist, where you will see the commit logs. Also, important 
messages from the DragonFly crew will come to the "kernel" mailinglist 
with a "HEADS UP" in the subject. These messages are extremely important 
to read.

Good luck further on!
