Hi all,

i'm still a newbie to netbsd but i keep it up...

I've managed to set-up my good old Raq2 with the Restore Cd provided by
Dennis C. My network is working and i even managed to set-up a functionnal
mysql client.

Now i need to do some cleanup on the system. The restore cd comes with
numerous software installed, which is cool but considering that the less
software you have, the less security hole you might get, i want to be a
little bit more drastic.

Can the software installed on the restore CD be removed thanks to the pkgsrc
system?

if not what are the best practices to uninstall softwares on a netbsd?


thanks for your help.
