As others have pointed out, for yum to work, it needs an link to the Internet
unless you can point yum to a local repository.
But, having said that, would you be able to consider the following
setup:
a) Do you have the package that you must run, NCTUns, available
to be reinstalled?
b) Is your computer capable of running virtual machines?
c) If your answers to a) and b) above are yes, then you might
want to install F14 on your existing machine, create a virtual
machine and install Fedora 12 in the VM and install NCTUns
in it.
Can you also contact the NCTUns folks to get them to update their
stuff to F14?
