We commisioned a new box running FreeBSD 6.2 Stable (as of Sunday afternoon UK time), to replace a broken 4.x box. It has been crashing around once per day since then. I have gathered a couple of cores so far and it looks like it's the same thing causing the crash. I'm no expert in reading these things, but it looks like it's happening the IPv6 stack? This host is IPv6 connected whereas our other 6.x boxes aren't.. The stack traces are attached below. Any help would be much appreciated.
