I assume you mean other hosts booting X off of this one machine?  If 
that's the case use 'xdm'.  It'll take a while to learn how to
configure just the way you want it :)   (start with "man xdm")

go into /usr/lib and type this (as root):

# ln -s libc.so.3.0 libc.so.2.2

The mwm is looking for an older version of libc than you have.  This
is OK since 3.0 is backwards compatable.  With making the symlink you 
are just faking out the mwm (and any other pesky programs with the same
geriatric problem).
