[opensuse] Need help installing SAR (without CD)



I have tried copying the packages I need, from CD to a machine, and then
ftp'ing it to the Linux server that I need to install it on, but there
are so many dependencies, it is starting to drive me crazy.

All I need to do, is install SAR, to get performance statistics from a
server (but I cannot install it from CD - the server is in another city
and I need to ftp the software to that server).


There must be a painless way of doing this. How can I do this, without
loading the CD's - are there packages that include the dependancies, so
that I can just install it all in just one go ? (and do it safely so
that I don't affect the existing packages on the server - server belongs
to one of our clients).
