I think you're saying that you have a port that installs a
configuration file, and that you've then changed the configuration
file, and when you upgrade the port, your changes to the
configuration file are lost. The solution is for the port to install
a *sample* configuration file, and for the user to manually copy the
sample to the real configuration file name when configuring. See the
apache2 portfile's httpd.conf.sample for an example.
