If you want to keep an older version of fedora running,
switch to the legacy support repositories:
http://fedoralegacy.org/
If you want to keep servers running much longer than
the fedora fast release cycles without re-installing,
you might want to switch to Centos:
http://www.centos.org/
Centos4 is not a big jump from fedora FC2 or FC3 but can
be expected to have official updates for a much longer
time.
