Thanks Avi, I will try that, when I did yum search spacewalk connected to ULN 
repo, no results were returned.  I will rtfm and see what repos I am supposed 
to draw from.  Looking briefly, seems there is a specific spacewalk repo from 
Oracle.

Hi,

(Apologies for the vendor-specific answers here)

Why not install Spacewalk from the Oracle repos directly? That way, you can get 
support for Spacewalk under your Oracle Linux support subscription too.

Installation instructions for Spacewalk on Oracle:

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E58680/html/index.html

Also, as per the documentation, registering a system with ULN is not supported 
when running Spacewalk (both client and server) as the Spacewalk RPMs replace 
the ULN RPMs and break connectivity. Regardless of whether you run the Oracle 
build of Spacewalk or the upstream build, you need to only use 
public-yum.oracle.com to source your packages:

http://public-yum.oracle.com

Once Spacewalk is installed, you can sync directly from ULN without needing to 
register with ULN, as per:

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E58680/html/sw22-config.html#sw22-channel-config-uln

Note this works in the upstream version of Spacewalk 2.2 as well. It's not 
specific to the Oracle build.

Hope that helps,
Avi
