IS4110 writes "A new racing car made with potatoes and carrots and powered with chocolate waste has been developed by the Innovative Manufacturing Research Centre of the University of Warwicks in the UK. The university's vehicle, called WorldFirst F3 project, has a steering wheel made of curran, a material derived from carrots, that is expected to replace glass fiber and carbon fiber. It also has a racing seat made of SoyFoam, a soybean oil-based, flexible foam material. Wing mirrors incorporate materials derived from potato starch, a bib made from flax fiber, and lubricants based on plant oils."

IMHO, you don't have any FLOSS option to achieve your needs as of now. But in the very near future FreeIPA(http://www.freeipa.org/) can fulfill most of your requirements . The current version(1.2.1) implements full centralized authentication with LDAP backend. But does not have things like group policies and selinux support. Its proposed to be there in version 2 which is due in another 2-3 months. Development of the project is very fast and is a very stable software as of now itself. See the road map for version 2, http://www.freeipa.org/page/Roadmap
