Actually this is pretty easy I'm guessing. Do you have the DW-MOTIF PAK
loaded? You'll need this and the OPENVMS-ALPHA PAK at a minimum loaded. Or
is your question on how to get and load the licenses.

The down side is if you're at the DECwindows login screen and you don't have
DW-MOTIF loaded you'd better have a terminal that you can hook up to the
VAXstation so you can load the DW-MOTIF PAK.

I'm embarrased to admit I went through this problem this week when setting
up a test box.
