ok lets see if i've got this right. cvsup'ing updates ports. ports are used to d/l, and compile from source various apps.
ok then, whats the point of cvsup'ing the source other than to get a new kernel? how do i update only apps that are currently installed at once? or is there even a way to do that? thanks for the help

Most questions are answered in the man page:
% man cvsup

You can cvsup the source to go to -stable from -release, or to the latest -stable.
If you want to upgrade the installed apps, you can use pkg_version to see which ports have upgrades available. see man pkg_version for details on how it can generate a shell script for you.
