Hi folks. We have a guy here who's dealing with freeBSD for the first time. Is there a command to show the patches installed against the operating system, and/or whether a specific one has been applied? Many thanks.

Found pkg_info, thanks. Also found the FreeBSD forum!!
You have found pkg_info and this carries over to the other pkg commands too (i.e., pkg_add, pkg_rm). A slight variance to the pkginfo, pkgadd, etc., of Solaris.
Versus my favorite OS, AIX, which would use lslpp.
Ahhh!!! AIX how nice it is compared to the other Unix variants.
