your CTAN archive is your best friend,
I recommend a teTeX distribution since it's easy to install
It should be in the systems/unix/teTeX directory

Are you sure they are not installed?

Anyway, someone posted earlier in another context:
 See http://www.sunfreeware.com/ for it and why not upload it to 
 http://www.sunfreeware.com/ too ?
You may find some of it there.

For the latex stuff, see http://www.latex-project.org/ . But you should know
that it is 30MB.

Otherwise, http://www.freshmeat.net/ is a good place to start searching for open
source software in general.

If you have no experience with installing such things (what I guess because you
are asking for these locations) you should consider to ask a more experienced
friend to assist you directly otherwise you might have a hard time ..., but
learn a lot. :-)
