Well, at first:
there's no problem in using the LessTif libs for applications
running on an arbitrary non-mwm windowmanager. Our mwm hasn't seen
too much development in the past ... (and is not even my choice for an WM)
If you're servere shuts down does this relate to a crash of mwm?
If so chanced are that it has created an core cump. Have checked this?
