Can someone point me as to where and how to look for the reason behind
crashing of our redhat es4 server.

Strange messages in /var/log/messages and other /var/log/* files.

Also find any core dumps (if they are enabled), see what component produced
them and at what time (same time as crash?), and examine them with gdb or
the like to see if any clues can be discerned:

find / -type f -name core -exec file {} \;
