Better yet, are there any Spacewalk-like software that works for both RedHat-based and Debian-based systems?

Tony, Landscape and Spacewalk are massive systems. Maybe you can elaborate on what it is you want these systems to do? – SpamapS Apr 7 '12 at 15:27

There is. In addition to straight Puppet and Spacewalk, there is a puppet-based system called "foreman" that does most of what you're looking for.

enter image description here

while the screenshot does show CentOS and Windows clients, it does have Ubuntu support

I've used it and I recommend giving it a go.

According to the FAQ, Spacewalk supports Debian, so it may support Ubuntu as well. http://spacewalk.redhat.com/faq.html

If you are looking for configuration options for a large environment, you could take a look at Puppet http://puppetlabs.com/
