Not sure why it's not working. Try to edit your 
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources  file, uncomment the line:

yum Dag http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el3/en/$ARCH/dag

then try an:

up2date xmms-mp3

Did you ever remove the original xmms package (with rpm -e)?

If you still can't get it to work, you might want to post the line in 
you /etc/yum.conf file that points to Dag's repository, and also the 
line you have for Dag in your /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources

you might also want to try your rpm command above with rpm -Uvh instead 
of -ivh
