Jeff,
crontabs come from:
/var/spool/cron/$USER
and
/etc/crontab
/etc/cron.daily
/etc/cron.hourly
/etc/cron.weekly
/etc/cron.monthly
Now in the *original* department:
I'd probably try moving the /sbin/shutdown and /sbin/reboot
binaries to somewhere *safe* and write a small shell script
that will send you email of the $USER trying to issue the command!
If that turns up something, then move the binaries back, If not, holler
back.
Off the cuff:
#!/bin/sh
# Sanity check for reboots
# this is /sbin/shutdown now...
#
case $USER in
root) echo "Moved it dummy..."
;;
*) echo $USER | mail -s "Shutdown thing" root
;;
esac
exit
