I've got some machine which is almost idle and works now almost only as dialup

to 6.1-PRERELEASE (4 days ago) the machine panices (uptime from an hour to
a day or two).

 I have one idea about this. You've said that machine acts as a dialup server.
What kind of ppp do you use: kernel (devices ppp + process pppd) or user (devices tun + process ppp)? It seems to me that kernel ppp is seriously broken in RELENG_6, but I've never succeeded in getting a crashdump (my otherwise stable home machine just reboots from time to time when I use
kernel ppp), so for now I've just switched to user ppp.
