Please follow Brian's advice. If you don't have even Fortran on that machine, then you're really in a pickle: you can extract the gfortran rpm contents (and all dependencies you may need) by hand in any place that you have access to and adjust LD_LIBRARY_PATH for the runtime accordingly. However, it's not a trivial task - it particular if you're not very familiar with subtleties of Linux. (I had to do this fairly recently on a CentOS machine, so I know it's possible, but there are a few gotchas that may require a few symlinks created by hand).

Cheers,
Simon
