Same here.  I enable the 'Enable Spacewalk Configuration Management' check box inside the kickstart > profile > system details.  Or else, you could just do rhn-actions-control --enable-all in the %post section.
I don't know of way to deploy the configs automatically, so I do as suggested above to put 'rhncfg-client get' in the %post script.
Does any know if this is an option available through the GUI?  I have not seen it.
