One question does beg asking there- why do you not have root access on a machine upon which you are trying to install a rather major piece of software?

Hi
Actually I need to install the same on a common server that is being used by 10 of us in r grp.
I thought may be we install it on our own rather than contacting the sys admin for same . THat would take a bit of time
Is there any wayout ???
Best Regards
Varun
