I've got a MacPro3,1 that after updating from 10.6 to 10.7 has intermittently 
been having its builtin Gb network interface go deaf. Nothing short of a reboot 
can bring it back. I began suspecting hardware and added a SmallTree NIC with 
their driver thinking that would solve it, but after two days the machine went 
deaf again.

So now I'm thinking that a reformat and clean install of 10.8 and all macports 
might be the solution. This is an active mailserver with many packages 
installed with macports (postfix, dovecot, antispam, dspam, sieve, etc.) and I 
don't want to lose any of their configurations. I have nightly CCC and hourly 
Timemachine backups.

What's the recommended way to reinstall previously installed ports (in 10.7) 
with all previous configuration onto a fresh system running 10.8?

Thanks for any advice.
