Is anyone else having probs with dags repo after 4.2 update?
# yum update Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/i386/dag/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error (101, 'Network is unreachable')> Trying other mirror.

Try adding some mirrors (I moved the problematic primary to the end):
$ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo # # [dag] name=Red Hat Enterprise Linux $releasever - $basearch - Dag's repo baseurl=http://dag.atrpms.net/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag/ http://dag.freshrpms.net/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag/ http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/freshrpms/pub/dag/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch... http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag/ failovermethod=priority enabled=1 gpgkey=http://dag.wieers.com/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt gpgcheck=1

this setup works well, cheers :)
The 3 latter URLs are actually one and the same machine. If you install the rpmforge-release package, you can find a yum mirror-list configuration commented that you can use with more mirrors.
The downside of the mirror-list approach is that you may not be using the one that works best for you.
