You are missing some shared libraries most likely.  Check

server# ls /usr/X11R6/lib/libXm*
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.a          /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so         /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmuu.a
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so.3       /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmuu.so
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.a         /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmuu.so.1
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so
