The url of the repos change AFTER the release is no longer
supported. A bunch of crap, I know - but I had the same issue with
another release.
what do they change to?
This is the latest versions of everything that was in the repositories
when the release went EOL. If you were up to date on F18 when you
disconnected from the web, there will be no updates from the archive.
There has been at least one *major* security issue since F18 (openssl
had a bad hole; was that heartbeat or was heartbeat something else?).
It was called "heartbleed".
So, can the OP find the files
fedora-rawhide.repo
fedora.repo
fedora-updates.repo
fedora-updates-testing.repo
for the relocated fc18 release?
???
And I see the heartbleed.com site specifically mentions F18 as
known to be vulnerable so I'll have to do as they suggest. thanks
for the heads-up

Well, Dave, FWIW, the repos for F18 are at
for 64 bit:
http://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/releases/18/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/ or for 32
bit:
http://archives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/releases/18/Everything/i386/os/repodata/
