Subject: Linux auditing checklist, documents

I am Linux System Administrator at a telecom provider. Our customer
inform us to send soon independent security auditors to have a look at
our Linux systems. They will have a root password and make an in deep
analysis of the systems.

I wish to prepare. What "commands" and "config files" they will look?
Are there Linux Security Guidelines? They wont use automated tools.
