...the only distro that has tools for say 'group policies' is Ubuntu 
Hardy that i know of but I cannot recommend that given its state of affairs.

You might want to give Debian Lenny a try if you don't have to use 
proprietary X drivers or are willing to deal with them. It comes with 
KDE 3.5.10 and I believe you should be able to get kiosktool for 
managing group policies.

That is all I can say for now. If and when kiosktool is updated for KDE 
4.x, then we can take another look.
