 In fact the upstream for this is a free product, and supports more
distros. It is also adding support for PostgreSQL as the back-end (RHN
uses Oracle as the back-end DB)

http://spacewalk.redhat.com/

 Support for:	Fedora, CentOS, SLE and Debian

 I've been considering installing it, wanting to use the PostgreSQL
support
