After moving the .pst file from the local harddrive to a
folder on our server, my distribution lists are showing up
blank with no contacts in them. When I open the
previous .pst file, the distribution lists are still in
tact. I have saved the distribution lists into the
new .pst file and everything works fine even after logging
out and logging back in. However, when the computer is
fully shut down and restarted, the distribution lists are
blank again.

Any suggestions?

Unfortunately, Distribution Lists are very frail and rarely survive a move
such as this. About all you can try is the "Update Now" button to try to
reconnect to the source Contacts, but it very likely won't work.
