Tampering with hubby's computer

[jill]

Natively you can set up auditd to watch for changes to various system
parameters like date/time, hostname, or /etc/passwd changes.  

If you need something with more robust reporting and rules options,
Tripwire's pretty slick and has both FOSS and enterprisey versions.
