hmpf, and you didn't tell me again which linux distro or SoXt version or
even OpenMotif version you are using...

ok, so you are running osx on the other side! ;) hopefully you didn't
say "xhost +". apart from your problem, you should really use X11
forwarding for such session by calling "ssh -X linux-box". if that
doesn't work enable X11Forwarding in your /etc/sshd/sshd_config and
restart your sshd daemon...

anyways, try to build and run the following source:
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
#include <Xm/Label.h>

main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  Widget toplevel, msg;
  Arg al[10];
  int ac;

  toplevel=XtInitialize(argv[0],"",NULL,0,&argc,argv);
  ac=0;
  XtSetArg(al[ac],XmNlabelString, XmStringCreate("hello",XmSTRING_DEFAULT_CHARSET)); ac++;
  msg=XtCreateManagedWidget("msg",xmLabelWidgetClass,toplevel,al,ac);
  XtRealizeWidget(toplevel);
  XtMainLoop();
}

now compile it with:
gcc -o foo foo.c -I/usr/X11R6/include/ -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXt -lXm

if this gives you the same error as before, compile it again by
specifying the reverse order of libraries:
gcc -o foo foo.c -I/usr/X11R6/include/ -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXm -lXt -lX11

now if this works you suddenly might understand why i asked you to
compile your source with "soxt-config" and see how this works out. ;)

look at your libraries for your linker and play with the order. google
at http://groups.google.com/ for "X Error of failed request:  BadWindow
(invalid Window parameter) X_DeleteProperty". you should find a lot of
information reg. your error there...

check out subject 302 of the Motif FAQ reg. this issue:
http://www.rahul.net/kenton/faqs/Motif-FAQ.html#302

cheers,
  tamer.
