Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
Release: 14.04
Codename: trusty


The issue I am facing is that, when I type in the command "shutdown -h now" as a root user, it is not logged anywhere in syslog, auth.log or kern.log.



But when a user with sudo permission does the same, it is logged in auth.log.



So, where can I find the logs for the first case?.
