To add a little more meat on the bones to this thanks to some help on irc.

if I tail the catalina.out log on the server and try to do an rhn_check on the 
client, the log doesn't get updated, which I'd expect something as the server 
is responding with a 500 error.

I can also communicate with the server from the client well, eg: I can do an 
rhn-channels --list, I can install a package from the server on on the client 
with yum, the spacewalk ui shows the client checking in, eg: registered at 
12:21, checked in at 12:51, so there is valid comms there, if I do an 
rhn_register I'm told (rightly so) that the server is already registered, so 
what could be causing the error 500 on the rhn_check ? I suspect this is the 
same issue as the config files not being able to be deployed.

thanks,

Matt
