Description ikkyisaacs 2014-06-11 23:11:17 UTC 
'Section 5.5.1. Installing Ports' under the 'warning' section at the top suggests using portaudit to search for security issues when it should suggest using pkg audit.
Comment 1 ikkyisaacs 2014-06-12 00:27:17 UTC 
Other references to portaudit also exist in the handbook, easily identified by searching.

Patch for security/chapter.xml and ports/chapter.xml

Attached is a patch, which replaces portaudit references pkg audit. I have also removed the references to installing portaudit from ports (it is now a part of the base system) and how pkg audit is run as part of periodic.
