What do you mean by suse/novell does not have these features?
To me it looks like they have more that that.

Suse linux enterprise server:
- ~400 euros one year, two cpus
- x86/amd64/emt64architectures
- reiserfs (faster than ext3)
- reiserfs online resizing
- ext3 (with online resizing)
- xfs
- jfs
- acl
- drbd
- postfix
- 3 filesystem permissions level (easy, secure, paranoid)
- HA
- SELinux (parts of it)
- 2.6 kernel
- ipsec tools
- ssl certificate management
- ldap user management
- dns/dhcp management tools
- automated installation
- multi configuration (scpm) makes it possibile to switch between different configuration with a single command
- cups
- excellent hw support
- LVM
- Firewall suitable for simple networks (even with dmz)
- excellent configuration tool (yast) that can be run in graphical or console mode, for exmaple over ssh

And I did not even mention office software, as I use SLES for servers only, so I definitely do not care about having OO, latest gnome.
