url directive specifies installation tree and livecd-tools doesn't handle that.
You need to specify subfolder with yum repository in repo directives instead.
Check packagedir value in
http://some.satellite-server.com/ty/WJow5BjE/.treeinfo which subfolder
you have, can be Client or Server.
For RHEL5 Server tree repo is
http://some.satellite-server.com/ty/WJow5BjE/Server

BTW. that must be older Satellite version, in 5.3 cobbler is
integrated and repo URLs are normal, see example in docs
http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Network_Satellite/5.3.0/Deployment_Guide/s1-provisioning-profiles.html#s2-provisioning-profiles-creating
