I've installed Gaussian 03 and Gaussview 3.0 on Athena for Sun and Linux
machines. Gaussian is a computational molecular chemistry application; 
Gaussview is a molecular model viewer that can display Gaussian output. To 
run them, type:

setup gaussian

at the Athena prompt- then, in the window that opens.

g03 <file.com 

to run Gaussian from a command file file.com

gv & 

to launch Gaussview

I set /var/tmp for temporary files and you may need a lot of free
space there for complex computations. File
/mit/gaussian_v03-B05/distrib/share/tests/runtests can be used to run tests;
comments in the script explain how it's used. You will need to copy the
directory tree /mit/gaussian_v03-B05/distrib/share/tests to a location 
where you have write permission to run the tests. 

Installation and configuration problems can be reported directly to me.
